Regarding SET LITERALS STRICT_ON making all quoted strings be string
literals.

Quoted identifers are important to allow object names to contain SQL
reserved words, whitespace, lower case, or non-ASCII character sets.

The SQL standard specifies that double-quoted strings are delimited
identifiers of objects, and single-quoted strings are string literals.  

This avoids the ambiguity mentioned in the URL you give below, in a
different way than the SET LITERALS property.  

What's the possibility for InstantDB to implement this?  I'd suggest a
new argument for SET LITERALS, perhaps SET LITERALS STANDARD, that makes
the SQL parser adhere to the SQL standard for quoted identifiers vs.
string literals.

Regards,
Bill Karwin
