Description:
------------
Currently PDO quotes null value as a string '' . I suggest to change this behaviour and quote null as sql NULL.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
$pdo = new PDO('pgsql:...', 'root', '');
var_dump ($pdo->quote (null));


Expected result:
----------------
null

Actual result:
--------------
string ('')

The issue with the specific case is that PDO converts the NULL to an empty string prior to pdo_pgsql has the opportunity to analyze it.  In pgsql_handle_quoter, the unquoted value is an empty string.  

I'll look at the impact this would have on other drivers to pass NULL and PDO_PARAM_NULL for paramtype.

The only way we'll be able to implement this feature is to change the quote function at the PDO layer to accept a zval.  However, this will require changes in each of the drivers.

Going to close this for now.  I would suggest a full-blown RFC for this change.  This would affect every driver under PDO, and it outside of the scope of pgsql.
