I think the proper amount of effort to rename existing system catalog
columns is zero.
Also, I think it's pretty difficult to change column names on views that
have already been released. The compatibility break for existing tools
is just too large.
A valuable service would be to ensure that any new views, and new
columns on existing views, have sensible names.
