The last component of the dotted path to the application module is
consistently referenced as the application "label". For instance it's
AppConfig.label. appname could be confused with AppConfig.name, which is
the full dotted path.
Small nitpicks. All column-related ALTER TABLE commands take an
exclusive table lock in PostgreSQL. The difference is that adding a
column without default doesn't cause a table rewrite, so the lock is
held only for a short time.
The time taken is more accurately proportional to table size, not row
count.
