Just think of the internal code that uses
SELECT * from USER_TAB_COLUMNS;
after you add a column.

||
|| Does anyone know if it is 'safe' to add additional columns
|| to user_tab_columns? I am running 8.1.5. I would use the new
|| columns to tell the application software which columns on
|| any one table are user editable by a dynamically generated
|| dialog form.

|| Thanks,
