Rami,
from practical real world usage you have a good point, since as you say, we can 
have both: * for a dynamic column list view definition and a static view 
definition if the view is created with a fixed column list.

That's not a problem If such behavior is clearly documented and I can't found a 
standard spec about this point.
Maybe this is more a convenience implementation decision than a standard 
contract, I don't know.

Any way as Sergei as stated take a way distinct from most other dbms can have 
portability consequences, however I do not see them here.

Dario
