Hi,
Is there any plan to support UTF-8 charactors for column names (or object identifiers) in MonetDB? I think it's not supported so far. Right?
I'm trying to port my database from a row-store one to MonetDB.
Now, we are using UTF-8 charactors (Japanese) in column names, so we need to convert them manually.
Obviously, it is possible, but if MonetDB can support UTF-8 charactors in column name, it would be easier to get porting our database to MonetDB.
And I found the related thread and feature request on this.

Bug 3010 - Does not currently support non-ASCII names in identifiers http://bugs.monetdb.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3010#c2
Is there any particluar plan? Is it difficult to implement?
