I meant DROP IF EXISTS and then CREATE.
This is more simple to implement than CREATE OR REPLACE.

Probably not, it's rather late in the cycle (isn't beta imminent?). Oh,
I'd vote for "OR REPLACE" as there's already an opt_or_replace

I have added this to the TODO list:
* Add OR REPLACE clauses to non-FUNCTION object creation
I think there are clearly some other objects that need OR REPLACE. Not

We're already vastly overdue for beta. The time for new feature
