Hmm. If we go down this road I would make the choice of simplicity and remove entirely a column, then, generating the snakecase from the camelcase or vice-versa (say like a $string =~ s/([a-z]+)/$1_/g;), even if it means having slightly incompatible strings showing to the users. And I'd rather minimize the number of exceptions we need to handle in this automation (aka no exception rules for some keywords like "SSL" or "WAL", etc.). -- Michael
