It does not matter.
### Question
When using `UpdateSchema`, I noticed a column cannot be moved(or any other
similar operation) by its new name after it has been renamed in the same
SchemaUpdate.
For example:
```java
Schema newSchema =
new SchemaUpdate(schemaWithIdentifierFields, SCHEMA_LAST_COLUMN_ID)
.renameColumn("data", "data_renamed")
.moveFirst("data_renamed")
.apply();
```
This fails with: Cannot move missing column: data_renamed.(Actually I have
to use the original name `data` in `moveFirst` method).
Is this the intended behavior of UpdateSchema, where subsequent operations
in the same update should continue to refer to renamed columns by their
original names? Or should SchemaUpdate also allow resolving
pending renamed names for move operations within the same update?
