I am in double mind about adding table prefix, although its useful from
namespacing point of view, but than users also need to deal with this extra
prefix while accessing properties in their IF.

I sympathize with [~ashutoshc] as to the prefix approach. Even we do, the
prefix currently chosen (table.) seems so commonly used that it may be in fight
with user's existing properties, causing unexpected result.
