While I don't agree with the idea of providing extra names that are
probably mostly going to increase the confusion of someone trying to
understand such a system, I think this use case would be well covered by
synonyms. But these would be defined by a new SQL command, say CREATE
SYNONYM, not by funny notation on the initial CREATE FUNCTION call.
