Technically, I agree it can already be done. However, having a canonical approach for this creates a focus point for creators of the `FederatedTableSource`s to target. Making it easy to plug different sources into the engine, as the `TableProvider` enables today. It can also silences the individual 'xyz pushdown' discussions that seem to keep popping up. This latter point makes me lean towards addressing this in datafusion itself versus a separate project. More advanced providers such as a SQLite or MySQL one can live in contrib or their own crate. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
