Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Selecting and saving the exact table (as in tables::) from the MariaDB tables is un-natural.
Moreover programatically adding data in the NextCloud table by directly input into MariaDB, is problematic.
Describe the solution you'd like
I can understand that there could be some backward compatibility problems, so it would be useful to have an option when creating a table to set something like "Create individual table", and this would actually create a DB table with a meaningful name (like oc_tables_table_<id>), with the column definition given by the definitions/additions of columns.

Research direction
Start by tracing how tables are created and how their column definitions are stored in the MariaDB-backed app. Investigate the existing tables:: format and the backward-compatibility concerns described in the issue. Done would mean a creation option can produce an independently named database table with the configured columns without breaking existing tables.
