   I dont know if this is documented anywhere. IIRC Pinot Database is similar 
to Postgres Database. 
   
   In pg, a client logs into a database and can run queries in that database. 
If access to another database is required, then a new client connection has to 
be used. pg provides schema to organize tables.
   
   In mysql, database is similar to pg schema i.e. it used to organize tables 
and queries can be cross-db. 
   
   So according to the original intent, all actions should be specific to a 
database. No cross-db operations including query and listing is allowed. Also 
multi-stage engine is initialized for a specific database. If we stick to the 
original intent, then a better experience is to provide a dropdown with which 
one can choose the header ? Then show a list of tables in that database.
   
   I wish we could also add schema to organize tables within a database. 
Unfortunately schema keyword is already used for other purposes.
