That seems to be a lot of work which isn't needed. If we just prefixed
the tables we wouldn't need to make a list of names which are already
taken, because they would never conflict

Now you have to look
through hundreds of extensions to check if your new table isn't going
to collide with some other.
There's a page on
MediaWiki.org for registering extension
namespaces.[0] If this is actually a problem, you could make
something similar for table names.
