In WordPress Toolkit Settings, provide an option for default table name prefix
Currently, we can define the default database prefix, but it assigns a random table name prefix, which is confusing to users. I'd like an option to specify the default table name prefix

This functionality is now available in WPT 4.9.0. Let us know on our forum if you have any feedback!

Actually, it's NOT available.
As I explained when I created this suggestion:
"Currently, we can define the default DATABASE prefix, but it assigns a random TABLE NAME prefix."

As a developer myself, I would find it annoying if my hosting company forced me to use a random table name prefix for my databases. I'd probably find another hosting company.

The main purpose of this measure is to improve security. A normal user will never see the database or its structure and content. But when he does, he should know enough about this issue or keep his hands off.
Anyway, it would be nice to set the prefix manually. It may be comfortable for developers, too.
