A reset command seems reasonable, but having it run only a 1 -> 0  
downgrade would not be enough. If your schema is currently at e.g., 8  
- your DB is likely to contain tables that were not present in version  
1 of the schema, so *all* existing tables will not be dropped when  
running the 1 -> 0 down() command. This would lead to stray tables,  
possible exceptions during the full migration up(), and the  
possibility for data corruption due to the fact that not all up()  
migrations are 100% reversible. The only way to be 100% sure of  
getting rid of *all* tables is to run the *full* down migration  
path...which leads you back to the initial issue.

..or am I still missing something?
