Re: [GENERAL] Do we want SYNONYMS?

[Michael C Rosenstein]

I won't press the issue for Postgres any further, but I will attest that 
synonyms work quite elegantly in Oracle, provide valuable functionality, 
and do not generally sow confusion among skilled developers.  It sounds 
like the proposed "synonym" feature for Postgres perhaps had a different 
intention than I assumed, however, especially due to the differences 
between the Oracle and PG viz. how "users," "schemas" and "databases" work.

Thanks.
