Resolved database prefix weirdness

Michael Gile

New Pleskian
Does anyone know the logic for this screen?
When installing wordpress as an app, there is a prefix setting.
Wordpress used to install with wp_ as the prefix
Now if you type in nothing, it appears to choose a random string.
When something is typed in, instead of using the prefix to replace wp_, wp_ is appended to it, and we end up with
PREFIXwp_

This is very odd behavior, as there is no obvious way how to recreate an app using the same prefix as an existing database.
