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

It's not worth the backwards-compatibility issues that would ensue.
