This is minor, but just curious about the reasons for the assymetry between ALTER and DROP with respect to tables vs. views.
* ALTER TABLE seems to work on both tables and views (even though ALTER VIEW exists, albeit with a limited operation support). * DROP TABLE works only on tables, not on views (dropping those requires DROP VIEW). Wouldn't it be cleaner if view operations worked only on views and table ones on tables? At the very least maybe the docs for ALTER TABLE probably should mention that it works on views too.
