    Is there a reason they are (with the exception of weblog_id) named blog_foobar instead of weblog_foobar? If’ve been looking for weblog_name, which failed, and upon closer inspection learned that it was supposed to be blog_name. Seems rather inconsistent with the rest of the nomenclature, so I was wondering.

    That table’s first form was laid out nearly four years ago, so I think it was just something that we did when there was no Query module, so using the shortened version of ‘weblog’ did not seem so problematic.  Of course, now it is too widely used by people to change it.  Legacy code and programming can be a nuisance.
