Hi Helge and all,


There seems to be some confusion in the way GCS escape sequences such
as "\" and "'". In -[GCSFolder _formatRowValue:], a GCSStringFormatter
instance is invoked with the "stringByFormattingString:" method. But
instead, wouldn't it be better if the escaping occured at the
channel-level?
For example, using postgres causes the string to be escaped and to be
unescaped afterwards, which seems a bit unclean...

Thanks,


Wolfgang
