Indeed, but the changing it at 3 columns is pretty confusing,
especially when you add fourth column.

I think the way it is done in Adminer can be good inspiration:

http://adminer.sourceforge.net/adminer.php?username=&db=a264133_8j3ib554&create=

- Default values not show unless specially asked for
- Collation and Attributes share same column because they apply to
  different column types
- It also does not allow to define additional indexes while creating
  table
