Hmm, I do:
<delimited identifier> ::= <double quote> <delimited identifier body> <double quote>
<delimitedidentifier body> ::= <delimited identifier part>... <delimited identifier part> ::=
<nondoublequotecharacter> | <doublequote symbol>
As opposed to, say, an empty character string literal:
<character string literal> ::= [ <introducer><character set specification> ] <quote> [
<characterrepresentation>... ] <quote> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ [ {
<separator>...<quote> [ <character representation>... ] <quote> }... ]
