hi,
first: i'm using slony 1.1.5 on linux on quite busy database.

i know that the correct way to add field to table is to do it using execute
script.

but.
this is cumbersome (requires lock, blocks database).
i am using this method:

add column on slave
and (very quickly, but a bit later) - add column on master.

now.
i know that it is not good. i saw that at lease definitions of triggers
differ.
but - this is way faster.
question is - what is the worst case scenario? what should happen for me to
get punished for this?
as for now - even with bad (kvvvv instead of kvvvvv) triggers i still get
good results (kudos to dev team).

is it safe but not sugested, or there is some scenario which could lead to
something bad? if yes, then what scenario and what bad?

best regards,

depesz
