Documentation mentions that we will be able to flashback a TRUNCATE or DROP

    Description

      Hi,

      The Flashback documentation:
      https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/flashback/
      claims we can flashback a DROP TABLE or TRUNCATE TABLE in a future version. I would be really surprised if this is possible, unless we would not actually drop the table or write the entire table into the binary log.

      Can you please elaborate on this?

      Thanks,
      Michaël

            If enable Flashback DDL support, then when we do the DDL, we will copy or move current table to a reserved & hidden database, when we need to flashback DDL, then just copy or move the old table from this hidden database
