Eh? I thought the problem being solved is that the command is
implemented in the client side rather than the server side, so all
interfaces need to implement it time and time again. With TABLE TABLES
there's no such problem.
TABLE has also the advantage (over SHOW) that it already works on 8.4,
and moreover it is SQL standard.
