I am still reading the thread, but I thought \z mytab should show only
the first match, like SELECT * from mytab, and \z *.mytab should show
all matching tables in the schema search path. This does make '.' a
special character in the psql wildcard character set, but as no one uses
'.' in a table name, I think it is OK.
