This is kinder than raising an error message saying to call get_table yourself. Also, it guarantees the schema is as up-to-date as possible. This also fixes an issue where rows could not be listed on the TableListItem objects that are returned from list_tables.

Doing the extra API round-trip is certainly friendlier, but it makes the programming error more expensive (in time / billing). I guess that is a reasonable tradeoff.
