Yeah, this is basically what I meant, sorry I didn't get to it quicker.

However, I tested it out a little and the patch you made doesn't work
because it produces commands like:

VACUUM ANALYZE "public.FooBar"

Which doesn't work, so I made my own patch that creates commands like:

VACUUM ANALYZE "public"."FooBar"

This allows for mixed case schema names as well as tables.

Adam, can you please give this a test as you are the person who caught
the bug in the first place.
