While I agree with this, one of the benefits of auto-discovery (with rules such as databases) is that databases and tables that do not rely on centralized information (such as MyISAM) can be easily transferred to another machine. Lots of people using innodb_file_per_table want the easy ability to copy a single table or a few tables to another file, like they can with MyISAM tables.
I am not sure that lots of people necessarily wants to copy files, but as long as no other efficient tools are supported they feel this is convenient. If the database system supported easy, efficient, and robust commands for backing up and restoring selected tables, I am not sure that many would care about copying the database files.
