[Phpmyadmin-devel] using PMA_Table::sGetStatusInfo without E_USER_WARNING

Hi,

I'd like to create a function isMerge() in the PMA_Table class (I
checked this with Marc).
In order to get the value of parameter 'Engine', I should either call
PMA_Table::sGetStatusInfo() or PMA_DBI_get_tables_full().

When using sGetStatusInfo(), an error (E_USER_WARNING) is thrown if
the parameter 'Engine' does not exist.
If using PMA_DBI_get_tables_full(), most of what is done in
sGetStatusInfo() has to be repeated.

So it would be best to use sGetStatusInfo() for this, but the error
should be avoided.

A possibility is to add a parameter to the sGetStatusInfo() function
to suppress the trigger of the warning if needed.
Another option, but less clean, is to disable error_reporting before
calling sGetStatusInfo() and reenabling it afterwards.

I prefer the extra parameter to suppress the trigger, but would like
to know what you think. Do you have other suggestions?
