when dealing with a direct connection to db, this is ok, because the 
module has a db-link structure where it keeps the table name. But the 
db_cluster is intermediate layer to several link structures which can be 
used from many modules.

Yes, use table should be enforced before any query in any module, being 
the safest way. There were some troubles in the past with modules using 
many tables as well.

Setting the table is just and assignment with a direct connection db module.
