When I click "Go" in the "Table options" Box on the "Table Operations" page "row_format=DYNAMIC" / "row_format=FIXED" is added to the "Row Statistics" on the "Table Structure" page - even if none of the options is changed.
before:
Format dynamic
Collation utf8_general_ci
...
after:
Format dynamic
Options row_format=DYNAMIC
Collation utf8_general_ci
...
switching to fixed:
Format fixed
Options row_format=FIXED
Collation utf8_general_ci
...
I'll fix it because it can be surprising to see the ROW_FORMAT clause added but fundamentally there is no bug here, IMO. The default value of this drop-down comes from the results of SHOW TABLE STATUS and shows the default row format chosen by the engine.
Fixed in subversion, thanks for reporting.
