I know 'drop' is a database term, but I'm wondering if --delete-column 
might be better wording here generically.

We have drop-daily and rebuild-daily for dealing with summary tables, so 
I'm thinking maybe the terminology meaning different things in different 
context might be confusing.  Just a thought.

Similarly, we have lots of cases where folks get bad data in their archive 
for rain/whatever and need to clean those items up.  Is there a 
"drop-field" or "rename-field" or the like to help people drop/rebuild just 
the summary tables for a particular database element ?   Apologies if that 
already exists...
