In Magento 1.8.0, the flat product and flat category indexes have been removed.

enter image description here

Does Magento 1.8 no longer support the flat product and category tables? If Magento 1.8 does support the flat product and category tables, how are these table created and populated?

  • product_flat_store and category_flat_store tables are generated and populated, so they seem supported. No triggers in DB, so it must be indexer code, but hidden away
