Note this comment: /* * Queries sent to Drupal should wrap all table names in curly brackets. This * function searches for this syntax and adds Drupal's table prefix to all * tables, allowing Drupal to coexist with other systems in the same database if * necessary. */ That's an MySQL-ism for working around legacy hosting sites offering only a single MySQL db bogging postgresql down...
No it's not. It's about being able to use a single db for multiple app's. Either I do something like that, or I have to [hardcode] change schemas after each connection because I only have a single db & a single db user.. which postgres/oracle[I'm sure others] support but not mysql.
Shared hosts don't give you a lot of resources, so apps build stuff like that in to make it easier.
