Unless you can exhaustively guarantee your customer-data containing production data will definitely be transformed into something completely unrecognisable and irreversible (and let's face it, you can never do so - systems change all the time), using this is irresponsible. The fact that the motivation for it is that it is "tedious" to do the right way doesn't exactly inspire confidence, though it is definitely in the spirit of the times. |

There are also plenty of organizations (not mine) with review boards for database changes. Those folks could also have a process to make sure that new, sensitive columns get added to the configuration file.
