passed as a keyword argument to the :meth:`.DDLEvents.before_create`,
:meth:`.DDLEvents.after_create`, :meth:`.DDLEvents.before_drop`, and
:meth:`.DDLEvents.after_drop` events would no longer be a list
of tables, but instead a list of tuples which contained a second
entry with foreign keys to be added or dropped.  As the ``tables``
collection, while documented as not necessarily stable, has come
to be relied upon, this change is considered a regression.
Additionally, in some cases for "drop", this collection would
be an iterator that would cause the operation to fail if
prematurely iterated.   The collection is now a list of table
objects in all cases and test coverage for the format of this
collection is now added.
fixes #3391

applying any topological sort to tables on SQLite.  See the
changelog for details, but we now continue to sort
tables for SQLite on DROP, prohibit the sort from considering
alter, and only warn if we encounter an unresolvable cycle, in
which case, then we forego the ordering.  use_alter as always
is used to break such a cycle.
fixes #3378

DROP TYPE instruction when a plain ``table.drop()`` is called,
assuming the object is not associated directly with a
:class:`.MetaData` object.   In order to accomodate the use case of
an enumerated type shared between multiple tables, the type should
be associated directly with the :class:`.MetaData` object; in this
case the type will only be created at the metadata level, or if
created directly.  The rules for create/drop of
Postgresql enumerated types have been highly reworked in general.
fixes #3319

- test_schema_2 is only on PG and doesn't need a drop all, omit this for now
- py3k has exception.args[0], not message

sort_tables_and_constraints function.
- The DDL generation system of :meth:`.MetaData.create_all`
and :meth:`.Metadata.drop_all` has been enhanced to in most
cases automatically handle the case of mutually dependent
foreign key constraints; the need for the
:paramref:`.ForeignKeyConstraint.use_alter` flag is greatly
reduced.  The system also works for constraints which aren't given
a name up front; only in the case of DROP is a name required for
at least one of the constraints involved in the cycle.
