Not an overall solution, but v.to.lines module/tool is written Python, so
adding an option which would be a prefix for names for all new columns
would be fairly straightforward.

The SQL keywords issue is not resolved, but a couple things here and there
could make it less of an issue. You can see part of the discussion in #653:
