I agree with Jon about IBM not spending a dime on this idea. First off it
would/might break quite a long list of software both commercial and private.
Next, SQL already allows for long names in the database, that's been there
for some time. Really the only thing you would be adding to the list are
program names and several other objects that quite frankly do not really
need long names.

With SQL objects this is already possible, and sometime in the future,
maybe we will be able to do everything using only SQL, which would be
fantastic.

What about in the meantime we could have expanded the current 10-char
system object name length to something longer?

This is one item on my wish list, and I could also consider including the
underscore character as a valid starting one for such names.
