Initial Comment:
Neils, In connection with the bug I found where adding a column during updates 
then deleting caused the DB to loose track of the columns in subsequent 
selections, I realized that there is another issue which is maybe a feature 
request which is why it is here.

In a sequence where a column needs to be added, as of now, one needs to commit 
before data can be inserted into the db. This is not optimal since adding the 
column is really part of the transaction and at least two transactions are 
needed to do what should be done in one maybe the process non-atomic. The 
problem also comes into view when the sys.columns view is accessed and the 
newly added column is not there yet.

During the fix to the bug I found above could this also be fixed? I know this 
may not be easy, but I felt it should be stated non-the-less.

-Carl
