Comment (by strk):

 Honestly I'd prefer to keep things simple.

 Remember that any parameter name change would require adding the old
 function name into topology_drop_before.sql.in, which currently only has 2
 entries and I would have avoided it completely (was added by Regina)

 Also if anyone would really be using parameter names. changing them would
 require changing calling code (its an effective API breakage).

 Personally I don't use or recommend using parameter names to my customers
 so my main concern is the maintainance of the upgrade procedure. To me,
 fixing the dox is the simplest and safer way to deal with this.
