I understand create table/create index etc. are not rollback-able
operations. As a result, if creation of a table is interrupted in the
middle of process, corresponding table file is left remain. This
prevents creating a new table with the same name. The only workaround
looks removing the file by hand. Is this safe, or potentially has some
dangers?
