Then you can't distinguish a joined column from a normal column. And
it would open up naming conflicts - which is the reason why the
layer name prefix was introduced. Bad, in my opinion.<br>

Hi Harish,<br>
Layer names are prepended to avoid troube with
columns having the same<br>
name (often the case with "id" or "name" columns).<br>
You can change the layer name to empty, then only an
underscore _ will<br>
be prepended - this saves characters.<br>
An alternative is to open a feature request for
adding an option to<br>
not prepend layer names.<br>
Best wishes,<br>
Anita<br>
