Research direction

Start by locating the TypeScript code that generates identifier quoting for the SQL builder, then compare its output with SQL:1999 and PostgreSQL behavior. The work is done when generated identifiers use double quotes and the resulting SQL is accepted by PostgreSQL; add or run a focused verification if the repository provides one.
