Comment (by mlennert):

 I'm attaching a patch to the current Python version of v.db.join that does
 the following:

 * add a 'column_prefix' parameter that allows defining a column prefix for
 all newly joined columns in order to avoid any column name conflicts

 * never join the key column from the other table as that would be
 redundant

 Any objections against applying this ?
