I think that we need to preserve consistency with the SQL syntax as
much as possible -- and neither MEMBER nor MEMBERSHIP nor BELONGS_TO
appear in that syntax. A lot of the terminology in this area seems
poorly chosen and confusing to me, but having two ways to refer to
something probably won't be an improvement even if the second name is
better-chosen than the first one.
