ALEMBIC SQLITE DROP COLUMN ERROR UPDATE

SQLite doesn't support dropping columns, or the ALTER TABLE commands.

What is really ridiculous about the whole situation is that SQLite could easily implement this operation as a single command, and handle the details of copying the table's schema with no inaccuracies and no need to pull data into memory for re-interpretation. SQLite's description of this operation is here. FROM SELECT" to transfer data between the two tables, then finally drop the old table.

In particular the latter option would be needed if the user is running the migrations in offline mode as interpretation of reflection is not an offline concept. drop_column() could also accept a fully formed Table object as an option, which the sqlite impl will make use of in lieu of reflection, in case the user wants to do it that way.

This would be within the sqlite impl only. drop_column() should, by default, use table reflection when invoked to get at the existing table def, so that it can be recreated.

Getting at the full table definition is the most tedious part. Alembic's architecture should support the feature but it requires that the sqlite implementation go through some much bigger hoops for these operations, namely that it has to rename the table and then fully recreate it minus the one column. I'm all for this feature but I would prefer if someone could volunteer to get most of the legwork done.
