- A rework to the way that "quoted" identifiers are handled, in that
instead of relying upon various ``quote=True`` flags being passed around, these flags are converted into rich string objects with quoting information included at the point at which they are passed to common schema constructs like :class:`.Table`, :class:`.Column`, etc. This solves the issue of various methods that don't correctly honor the "quote" flag such as :meth:`.Engine.has_table` and related methods. The :class:`.quoted_name` object is a string subclass that can also be used explicitly if needed; the object will hold onto the quoting preferences passed and will also bypass the "name normalization" performed by dialects that standardize on uppercase symbols, such as Oracle, Firebird and DB2. The upshot is that the "uppercase" backends can now work with force-quoted names, such as lowercase-quoted names and new reserved words. [ticket:2812]
