Current configuration on the wiki
Quotes started being added to integers in r4984 (August 2004). Before that, is_numeric() was used to determine whether to add quotes, so quotes were omitted from numeric strings, which is obviously wrong. The idea here is to use the type of the variable to hint to the database as to whether quotes are needed. The results are somewhat inconsistent, since some callers do not convert numeric strings obtained from user input to integers. That makes it a more conservative change. Callers can opt out of unquoted integers by casting them to string. The reason for doing this is that quoting integers turns out to be not as harmless as originally assumed. We found a case of it confusing the MariaDB query planner, causing inappropriate indexes to be used. I also made addQuotes() consistently return a string, instead of returning an integer for boolean values. This was already the case for MySQL, but it seems like a good idea everywhere.
