We never agreed on a convention for DB column names, hence this bug report.
The guideline is for the REST API.

""" Where a field contains a 'date' it should be consistently named *_date as
opposed to date_* and it should always return a full datetime. """

As stated before, the problem is that a _date suffix is confusing for other
datatypes IMO.
