A common feature of the objects described in this section is that they all have an underlying key that uniquely identifies them in the database. Unlike, for example, changing the filename of a file on the file system, you can safely change the label, name, and title of any database object without worrying about, for example, that other objects lose references they might have to the renamed object.
