One problem with keeping it is that interface coders are getting
confused by some of the unused system table columns, assuming they mean
something, when in fact they don't. Both ODBC and JDBC have had this
problem that I fixed today.
Maybe the best solution is to mark the code as NOT_USED and remove the
column. That way, the code stays around but no one sees it.
