The shell is a great tool for experimenting with DAL. Including on existing solutions! But as far as I know in order to access a table we must call db.define_table(...). This makes in cumbersome to use the shell with existing solutions, especially when where are just testing ideas for an existing solution.
For this purpose I think a load_table or a load_tables method would be great. This would just load the existing definition in the db connection object, avoiding all the problem of re-typing the entire table definition and unwanted changes to the current definitions that might become from typing a wrong or incomplete definition at the prompt!
