array quoting

Dear all,

I wonder why array[ref] quoting doesn't add enclosing single quotes, as in
scalar quoting?

 $ perl -MDBI -le'$dbh=DBI->connect("DBI:Pg:database=XXX", "XXX", "XXX");
print $dbh->quote(a); print $dbh->quote([a])'
 'a'
 {"a"}

Because in Postgres array literals must be enclosed in single quotes.
