Is there any way to get prompts for column names when using synonyms in a query?

Yes. You can modify the query for columns on the DB Options tab in DB Queries section, pick the query specific for Oracle "Columns (Oracle)" and make that query lookup both table names and synonyms. Basically in the WHERE clause change

where owner = :SCHEMA_NAME and table_name = :OBJECT_NAME

to

where owner = :SCHEMA_NAME and table_name in (select :OBJECT_NAME FROM dual UNION SELECT table_name from all_synonyms where owner in (:SCHEMA_NAME,decode(user,:SCHEMA_NAME,'PUBLIC','')) and instr(synonym_name,'/') = 0))

The above is just an idea for the change you need. I haven't' tested it. Please test the new query before updating SQL Assistant options.
