While writing this and thinking about it, what if we made it configurable, to let you say for each table whether show by defaultor not?
Yes, i also thought about this and per-table option seems to me like a reasonable approach.
I believe this would make it even more obscure - what's the default if I don't set it, which tables are enabled from the get-go (does it depend on naming? Ordering?), etc. etc. I would (if I were to decide) keep the setting as it is, BUT PRINT A WARNING. To solve the "hundreds of tables" thing - instead of "all", the command would take a regexp, plus *maybe* an IP family filter (only show v4/v6 tables). My 0.05 of your preferred currency. Elmar.
