Bug Description

As a use case, the distribution named 'principia' needs to be renamed to 'formulas', and old web links to 'https://launchpad.net/principia' should be redirected to 'https://launchpad.net/formulas'

While it's true that the pillar name data model supports alias for distribution, there is no way except through SQL to create an alias for a distribution.

So this bug is really about adding the UI on the distribution administration page to add aliases.
