>
> Currently table names are always strings. Sometimes that string is just
> tablename, sometimes it is dbname.tablename. Sometimes the code expects one
> or the other, sometimes it handles either. This is burdensome for developers
> and error prone. With the addition of catalog to the hierarchy, this becomes
> even worse.
> I propose to add two objects, DatabaseName and TableName. These will track
> full names of each object. They will handle inserting default catalog and
> database names when those are not provided. They will handle the conversions
> to and from strings.
> These will need to be added to storage-api because ValidTxnList will use it.
