Comment (by Ryan Schave):

 Replying to [comment:2 Simon Charette]:

 > Does Posgres still allows for generated field alterations but disallow
 that `USING` is not used? If that's the case it seems like a better
 solution would be to have generated field alteration continue to be
 supported simply not specify `USING` (which is effectively redundant with
 the column type) instead of disabling the feature?

 I found that I can rename the GeneratedField without any issues.

 Renaming a field within the expression throws the ValueError:

 {{{
 ValueError: Modifying GeneratedFields is not supported - the field
 sales.Order.total_cost must be removed and re-added with the new
 definition.
 }}}

 This error appears to be raised by Django, so it's not even getting to
 Postgres.
