That is not true.
There also is the security table.
And if you have xtables-addons installed, there might also be the 
rawpost table.
But any of those might not be loaded, if compiled in as loadable module.
So you might need to read /proc/net/ip_tables_names to work only on 
existing tables, without loading unwanted/needed ones.
