  <para>
   <function>pg_escape_identifier</function> escapes a identifier
   (e.g. table, field names) for quering the database.  It returns an
   escaped identifier string for PostgreSQL
   server. <function>pg_escape_identifier</function> adds double
   quotes before and after data. Users should not add double
   quotes. Use of this function is recommended for identifier
   parameters in query. For SQL literals (i.e. parameters except
   bytea), <function>pg_escape_literal</function>
   or <function>pg_escape_string</function> muse be used. For bytea
   type fields, <function>pg_escape_bytea</function> must be used
   instead.
  </para>
  <note>
   <para>
    This function has internal escape code and can also be used with
    PostgreSQL 8.4 or less.
