Db2 Admin Tool - issue regenerate view after table column alter

After altering a table column referenced by a view an alter regenerate view should be issued as best practice. IBM Db2 Admin Tool does not issue the regenerate view command currently and we believe it should. After discussing with Db2 Support and IBM Tool support we all agree. This item has been deemed a higher priority enhancement but I'm told it needs further review for full consideration and implementation.
