What has become of the "dollar quoting" mechanism that we had so much
discussion about back in August/September?

IIRC, a consensus was reached on the actual format of the quote
delimiters (either $$ or $identifier$), and Tom had a proof of concept
patch to the parser to handle it, but work was needed on psql, plpgsql,
pg_dump (and pg_restore?) + docs.

Is anyone working on it?

cheers

andrew
