Description:
MySQLdump adds drop table statements for views to the dumpfile. Furthermore, it adds unneccessary CREATE DATABASE and USE statements between the create table and create view statements.

How to repeat:
e.g. run

mysqldump --add-drop-table --allow-keywords -i -c -h<somehost> -d --quote-names
-r<somefile>.sql -u<user> -p --databases <database>

against a database containing views
