Re: clone_schema function

"seriously flawed" is a bit of a stretch. Most sane developers would not
have schema names of one letter.
They usually name a schema something practical, which totally avoids your
nit picky exception.
However, if you are that concerned about the "serious flaw", you have the
option of using the method
of dumping the schema, editing the dump and reloading. Or, I invite you to
use your great skills and
write a better method.
