The problem with this is if two or more wordpress installations share the same database and use the same plugin - data from one will corrupt the other. Using $tableprefix ensures that we avoid conflicts in the same way that WP does... Though, thinking on it you could do $tableprefix . 'cjd_' . Ah well, too late now for lots of my stuff, sigh.
