> In the future, we may have to add new table columns (for instance, see 
> OAK-3730).
> We can somewhat decouple database changes from code changes by only using new 
> columns when they are present.
> However, we need to make sure that once the columns have been added and the 
> system has started to use them, no older code writes to the DB (potentially 
> causing inconsistencies because of not updating these columns).
> To prevent this, code could check that it understands all columns it finds on 
> startup. If there are unknown columns, it would need to abort and log an 
> error that explains the compatibility issue.
