Then I'd agree with the OP and think the notice should go away on usage in DML; 
though it should be kept for DDL.

Can the system be made smart enough to not allow intra-schema collisions in 
addition to same schema ones?  That would seem to be the area of greatest 
concern - particularly around the usage of truncate/delete/drop.

Thought: would there be some way to flag a table like this to always require 
the use of a schema prefix to be accessed (since right now truncated names only 
have to be schema unique) in certain conditions (drop, delete, truncate)?
