There is Alias parameter for UserTag's which can be used in a similar 
manner, but the docs say that it will not work for looping tags like 
[PREFIX-*], so I guess you are going to have to do some global 
search-and-replace in your catalog, or rewrite the header row for your 
table.txt file to match IC field names before you upload it.
