Hi Madhura and Atul,
I was looking at indexAction() in DatabaseStructureController.class.php, which is 566 lines. I find it too long to be manageable, and PMD agrees [0].
Do you consider this method a work in progress? Does MVC mandate that indexAction() should remain that size?

Indeed, it looks too long. I will look into the indexAction() method to find logical sections to break into new methods.

I agree it's a work in progress and needs further refactoring. Looking at it, I think it pretty much contains only the logic that just displays the Database_Structure index page (or may be the logic for "Drops/deletes/etc. multiple tables if required" needs to go into separate action?). Thereafter, it can surely be further broken into some helper functions or sub-actions for readability/reuseability. Also, it's size will further reduce once other actions like addRemoveFavoriteTablesAction are called directly, instead of, via indexAction.
