At first blush, it seems like we need to a way to age off index tables or
the set of tables could grow out of control, especially if people are creating
and deleting a lot of index tables with only minimal writes. On the other hand,
even if we had 1 megabyte of table names, that would be likely ~ 50,000 table
names (20bytes each). So not really a big problem with cleanup, but James'
point above:
> corner case of an index being dropped and subsequently a table being
created with the same name
Is still a concern.
Otherwise, lgtm
