Adding a table column, and a schema column, would be ideal. Those would
all be part of the PK and not null'able, but then we wouldn't
necessairly always return all that information- that's the situation
that we've been talking about.

CREATE doesn't fail if the name is too long today, it truncates it
instead. I continue to feel that's also the wrong thing to do.
