We'd need to add a new table operation for renaming a table internally. The ugly part is that we'd have to rewrite every row for the table in META to do this.

The SQL way to do this would be "ALTER TABLE table RENAME new name". However, that's a bit verbose, so I think "RENAME table TO new_table" would be fine.

A renaming function of table alteration is needed.
Is there a tool for renaming the table?

Any ideas please post back.
Also, i'd like to add renaming syntax to hql as describe below.

hql > RENAMING table_name TO new_table_name;

What do you think?
