Reading this issue, and I agree it is not a bug - the new datastore is
behaving as designed in order to preserve valid names for GML generation.
For this specific case the old datastore would of required a similar fix
(to prevent type names being of the form
"local_namespace:remote_namespace:typename").

GeoServer may have work arounds, but I do not mind if the new DataStore is
taking more care to produce consistent type names.
I'd suggest to make this name mapping optional and disable by default to

The drop-in replacement metric is being a trouble here, care was taken to
allow this to drop in and use the same connection parameters. I would
understand if the data store has some differences.
Is this change visible to GeoServer users? I guess it may be if the
geotools provided type name is recorded in the geoeserver configuration ...
and that value is fixed (there is no way to edit it as I have discovered
when renaming tables in PostGIS).
