catch is any other views that depend on the view you wish to drop.

Tip: It's sometimes useful to rename an existing view or table to deprecate it. (I use names like _someview_v_20080520.) When you rename a table or view, the definition of any views which depend on them will be updated appropriately. This is particularly handy when you have several layers of views and don't want to break current behavior.
