Description

Describe the bug

When you set DisableIS to true, when connecting to PMA, the list of databases is not displayed. After refreshing the page, the list of databases / tables is displayed. Disconnect then reconnect and the list of databases is no longer displayed.

By disabling DisableIS, the list of databases / tables works correctly.

It does not depend on the number of databases / tables present (some of our clients only have one db with few tables, others have hundreds of databases with hundreds of tables)

To Reproduce

Set DisableIS to true

Login to PMA

Expected behavior

Databases/tables list should always be displayed

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with DisableIS set to true on the reported MariaDB setup, then trace how phpMyAdmin loads the database and table list during login and reconnection. Done means the databases and tables remain visible after connecting or reconnecting without requiring a page refresh.
