When executing this: create view myview2 (t0) as select c1 from t It returns this when doing a SHOW CREATE VIEW myview2: CREATE VIEW test.myview2 AS select `test`.`t`.`c1` AS `t0` from `test`.`t` This is not at all what I entered. I dislike backticks unless I specify them. I don't want a database name included unless I specify it (from `test`.`t`). Can the annoying behaviour be changed or turned off?
