You can set a Description for each field (maybe you've done it already) and read that instead of the column name. You said they wanted it the way they want it and didn't care how much it costs. Now you can bill them for writing out nice user-friendly descriptions of all the fields. Who doesn't like some mind-numbing, trivial task once in a while where you can bill the same as when you're adding complex AJAX scripting to every part of your site just because you can? Hell, maybe you can make an AJAX interface to write those descriptions for each field via an HTML form! I think there might be a couple of people who would agree that that is a great idea.
