Well that's an excellent question.  `sql-product-interactive' does 
support
C-u C-u, but I realise now that that `product' is its prefix arg and in 
the
case of C-u C-u it sets a value of '(4) for `new-name'; so you're right 
--
there's no particular need to support other values.  Personally I would 
still
be inclined to use `consp' just so that additional C-u presses didn't 
result
in the odd names that you currently get, but that's obviously not a 
major
concern.

Ok.
