I can't quite see how a non-overloaded flag would work, unless we get
rid of schemas.  But I think there are a variety of other kinds of
labeling that I think would work.  I'm still not sure that's as good
as a general solution, because if nothing else it relies on us to make
the right decision as to which type to use in each case, and
considering that neither Tom nor I are particularly sold on what we
did with CONCAT(), nor am I sure that we even agree with each other on
what the right thing to do would have been there, I'm a bit skeptical
about our ability to get these decisions right.  But it might still be
an improvement.
