If there would be a slony script to add columns to just 1 table
reliably, and do all the necessary things transparently to the user, I
would argue that 90% of the use cases of EXECUTE SCRIPT would be
covered. Is that a scenario which can be covered reliably with a script
and only minimal locking involved ?
