I don't know I don't see any benefits in having those classes right now. Those properties you mentioned are system properties, which should be auto generated, are we going to do that for all catalogs? I really feel that we do not have any use cases for those classes. Could we do the same as with "moving tables between databases" and introduce it once we know what do we need them for? It's always easier to introduce new API than remove old one. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
