Actually, I prefer it the old way. I just like to know the column order
`SELECT *' would return (though I never use `SELECT *' myself). Not to
mention - the column order in my tables usually has some logical meaning
(result of relation design, you yourself probably don't just `throw some
columns in there' too) which would be lost otherwise.
