I'm a bit surprised to hear the MySQL and PostgresSQL connectors don't support
this. 

The SQl2003 standard included a defined the INFORMATION_SCHEMA, which was
expanded IIRC in 2005 and 2008. The INFORMATION_SCHEMA would give a
standardized access to things such as view definitions. 

HSQLdb was one of the early adopters of the standard. PostgreSQL, MS SQLServer
and MySQL all support it. 

Firebird 3.0 does not conform to the standard in this respect. 

I believe the decision was to support the 2003 standard as a baseline. Which
meant that for those RDBMS(s) that didn't conform those sdbc drivers would need
to recreate the code for access to those artifacts. The MySQL and PostregsSQL
should of been able to use the HSQLdb code, for these types of things, almost
unchanged. At least I believe that was the plan.
