This wasn't the case before, since `_internal` was always an in-memory database created from scratch. I'm completely happy for the `core_*` tables (or `datasette_*` or some other name) to live in the persisted-to-disk `internal.db` database, even though they're effectively meant to be an in-memory cache. I don't think it causes any harm, and it could even be quite useful to have them visible on disk - other applications could read the `internal.db` database while Datasette itself is running, should they have some weird reason to want to do that! Having those tables stick around in `internal.db` after Datasette shuts down could be useful for other debugging activities as well.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",1870672704,
