Well, it's more like "no quoting is simplest", then all the identifiers
are case-insensetive and you don't have to worry much about upper and
lower case. You will read them back in lowercase though.

But to answer your question, unquoted identifiers can contain letters,
numbers and the underscore.

Have a nice day,
