I would recommend a direct RELOAD <newname> rather than unload/reload, because the 
UNLOAD creates a text file that can be read by anyone at all, no matter what the 
database passwords are, and includes the owner password. When the UNLOAD/RELOAD must 
be performed, then either the developer of the owner must do it, remembering to 
destroy the text files when done. 

1. Give the owner password to one or two other trusted employees who can then do the 
unload/reload

2. GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES to one or two trusted employees, retaining the OWNER password 
for the developer and the owner. This allows the owner to remove access for the 
employees if they leave or whatever.
