    Description

      I would like to request that we add a clarification on our "Data at Rest Encryption" page at the end of the section about "ALTER TABLE T encrypted=NO".

      https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/data-at-rest-encryption/

      At the end of this sentence:

      "Disables the encryption of table T. If it was encrypted before, it's decrypted."

      I would like to add something like:

      If you have innodb-encrypt-tables=FORCE set, then this statement will fail with an error similar to the following:

      ERROR 1005 (HY000): Can't create table `db1`.`#sql-a5a0_2` (errno: 140 "Wrong create options")
