    Description

      Remove following restriction for "RENAME TABLE" statement:

      "If there is an index defined on the table, the table can be renamed."

      I really do not see any valid reasons (except, probably not very wise implementation) for existence this restriction. And it may come very inconvinient if table to be renamed has an index(ses) referenced by foreign keys from other tables.

      Oleksandr
