Well, it's just comment changes...

If I understood the discussion correctly, Tom objected to the more 
drastic change of renaming the catalog column. But the patch Jonah 
posted didn't do that, it only changed the comments, precisely because 
he felt that others might not want the more drastic change,

(I haven't checked whether the comment changes are a good idea. But they 
probably are..)
