Not good - the big issue preventing implementation is that quote()  
does not pass the current column to the Postgres driver - thus, the  
postgres driver never does the necessary quoting for binary data.

Not sure if I am following the code completely, but quote() seems to  
be written (at least as called from most locations) with the  
assumption that quoting is independent of the column type.  This is  
wrong.  Not sure how this needs to be fixed properly.
