Thanks. Although the provider name must not now be provided twice, I
still hope that prepare_create_database() could take the new database
name explicitly as a parameter.

Also, it would be nice if the documentation for these methods stated
whether it is necessary to first open a connection. I don't see how it
could create a database without knowing the other connection details,
such as hostname.
