    Description

      Just when I thought that INFORMATION_SCHEMA returns proper default values which could be used across different MariaDB server versions....

      • Numbers are now just fine (e.g. not quoted) on both 10.0 and 10.2
      • But now textual columns (varchar, text...) are quoted and only IF they contain some default value (even empty string) on 10.2+ only

      10.2:

      +--------------+---------------+-------------+-------------+------------------+----------------+
      | TABLE_SCHEMA | TABLE_NAME    | COLUMN_NAME | COLUMN_TYPE | ORDINAL_POSITION | COLUMN_DEFAULT |
      +--------------+---------------+-------------+-------------+------------------+----------------+
      | erschema     | partner_sites | er_order    | varchar(4)  |               70 | 'DESC'         |
      | erschema     | partner_sites | er_limit    | tinyint(4)  |               71 | 10             |
      +--------------+---------------+-------------+-------------+------------------+----------------+
      

      10.0

      +--------------+---------------+-------------+-------------+------------------+----------------+
      | TABLE_SCHEMA | TABLE_NAME    | COLUMN_NAME | COLUMN_TYPE | ORDINAL_POSITION | COLUMN_DEFAULT |
      +--------------+---------------+-------------+-------------+------------------+----------------+
      | erschema     | partner_sites | er_order    | varchar(4)  |               70 | DESC           |
      | erschema     | partner_sites | er_limit    | tinyint(4)  |               71 | 10             |
      +--------------+---------------+-------------+-------------+------------------+----------------+
      

      So we have different results depending on the context (INFORMATION_SCHEMA vs. SHOW CREATE TABLE...). What a mess.
