Vincent Poon commented on PHOENIX-4442:
---------------------------------------
I don't know if this is a good idea - it might be confusing as indexes have
additional states such as "rebuild", "building", etc. The refactoring in the
codebase would be a mess if we were to rename PIndexState, and would make the
code less readable. Furthermore an index name doesn't always map directly to a
table name, in some cases it's just a logical name that maps to a physical
table. I don't see much gain from reusing this column, versus the cost of
making the code less clear.
