Description:
Wildcards would be great for this command (e.g. REPAIR TABLE <dbname>.*  or REPAIR DATABASE <dbname>) 

There's a certain database i manage who's tables periodically get corrupted. it'd be nice to be able to do that blind repair on all the tables without having to check each table individually.

How to repeat:
this isn't a bug. 

Suggested fix:
nothing to fix

You could do this with mysqlcheck --repair db_name.
mysqlcheck --repair is a command-line interface to
REPAIR TABLE.  It issues a SHOW TABLES statement
for the database, then issues a REPAIR TABLE statement
for each of them.

Thank you for a feature request. As Paul already explained you, there is alternative way to get the same results, so I do not think there is any reason to implement the feature you requested.
