Yes, this looks like it needs to be reverted....

Why was this done?

From my perspective this is a serious bug, because now getColumns() doesn't return column information for views, materialized views or foreign tables any more.

Which in turn means that the SQL client I am maintaining (SQL Workbench/J) is no longer able to display column information for anything else than tables.

I would assume that this is true for any other JDBC based SQL client. It will also break tools like Liquibase and probably Hibernate as well as they also rely on getColumns() to return information about views (I am sure about Liquibase, not 100% sure about Hibernate though)

Thomas
