> For many applications (at least the one I am working on ;-)) the column names 
> in a MetaModel CREATE TABLE operation may be dynamically provided for 
> instance by the UI or by some other mechanism in the application. For those 
> external parts it may be close to impossible to figure out if a particular 
> column name is valid or not. For instance in JDBC databases it's typically 
> not allowed with whitespaces in column names, whereas it is allowed in some 
> NoSQL and file-based datastores.
> Wouldn't it be smarter then that we make this validation (and potential 
> on-the-fly normalization) a responsibility of the backing DataContext. For 
> instance, in JDBC module we could ensure that whitespace is replaced by 
> underscore and that other special characters maybe also get some special 
> treatment.
