Because versioning is a good thing to do ;-) No, actually there is
some code involved that requires the versioning components available
and AFAIK there was never the need to build in a set of "if no
versioning config is present, throw UnsupportedOperationException"
parts in the code.

To avoid the empty tables in your database, you can use the derby
bundle PM with an embedded db configuration, for example. It will only
create a few files that can be ignored during backup etc. and does not
affect your actual database.
