Comment (by pento):

 Thanks for the extra information, @soodl.

 Rather than adding new defines, it's possible for you to do this using a
 `db.php` dropin as a replacement for WPDB.

 `wpdb::tables()` is used throughout core to retrieve table lists, as well
 as to set the WPDB table name members - `$wpdb->posts`, for example, so
 well written plugins (that don't assume the table name) will continue to
 function correctly.

 By extending it as in the [attachment:db.php example I've attached], you
 can replace a few or all table names.
