A bit OT but I do remember a time when you could name a field with a DB
keyword and the SQL view would not be generated. I Remember we a few forms
with the field call "function" and the SQL view wouldn't build until we got
smart and started naming the field something like "functionx". I think the
last time I saw this was like in 6.x, maybe even 5.x.
