What would you have it do --- list tables that you cannot actually
access without qualification? That doesn't seem like an improvement to
me.
You could write "\d *.*" to see everything, or "\d test_1.*" and
"\d test_2.*" to see the full contents of those two schemas. But
ISTM that \d without any schema qualification should only show tables
that you can access without any schema qualification.
