As others, I am concerned about people being confused when funny-looking
trigger names suddenly appearing when you disable all table triggers.
What I ended up doing is to create a user and internal section when
displaying disabled triggers:
Disabled user triggers:
check_update BEFORE UPDATE ON orders FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE trigf()
Disabled internal triggers:
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_16409" AFTER INSERT ON orders FROM customer NOT DEF ...
"RI_ConstraintTrigger_c_16410" AFTER UPDATE ON orders FROM customer NOT DEF ...
I kept the "Triggers" section unchanged, showing only user triggers. I
also updated the code to handle 8.3+ servers.
Patch attached.
