My only caveat is that some folks use this programmatically, so by "client" I'd caution for it to be in the "client API libraries" or whatever -- Often folks will use things like "show tables" in a PHP script......just clarifying to make sure we're all on the same page wrt "client" vs. "mysql program which is a commandline client". -Sheeri (who clarifies things that she probably doesn't need to...)
