Specifying INNODB without configuration

jef
Is it a bug or a feature that with the conditions

1. INNODB is not configured in my.cnf
2. Table type is specified as INNODB

that when you create the table there is no warning,
and no syntax error, and the table type silently
and Microsoft-like, defaults to MyISAM?

Now, if you specify table type as TYPE=bullshit,
you get a nice (and expected) syntax error.
