Output columns RULE_START and RULE_END is renamed to INITIAL_TIMESTAMP

That naming doesn't make much sense to me, and I actually found the RULE_START and RULE_END naming pretty clear and self-explanatory.

You seem to want to avoid the use of START and END here. However to me, the meaning INITIAL and FINAL for a range is slightly off and therefor confusing.

Why not just use RULE_START and RULE_END, or maybe VALID_FROM and VALID_TO.
