right - the original question was: can direct modification
of system tables be completely disabled, and (if yes):
what alternatives would we need...to still be able to do
what we do nowadays _with_ those direct modifications.

Afaikt we all agree that those direct updates should
be disabled completely, if possible.

Using the API is one thing, but imho it should be possible
to do all of that from within a SQL script - like

DROP SOURCE OF [<procedure name>|<trigger name>|*]
or
CHANGE OWNER OF [<db object>|*] TO <new_owner>

- along these lines. ( Security/grants will have to be
carefully considered here, obviously! :-) )

Does the "standard" say anything about these things?

cheers,
Frank
