The intend is to fix SQLite 3.0 so that it generates column names the same way as other database engines. Hence it will (in theory) be compatible and no "AS" aliases will be required.
If somebody can supply me with a consise list of rules for generating column names, that would be exceedingly helpful in making SQLite 3.0 more compatible with other engines.
