Alexander Kolbasov commented on HIVE-18294:
-------------------------------------------
[~ekoifman] There are two ways of specifying external tables: using tableType
and using table parameter {{EXTERNAL}} set to true. Some parts of the code use
one method and some use another method, HIVE-19253 has some discussion about
it. I am trying to clean this up a bit so I need to understand the intention in
various places that use it.
> add switch to make acid table the default

> it would be convenient for testing to have a switch that enables the behavior
> where all suitable table tables (currently ORC + not sorted) are
> automatically created with transactional=true, ie. full acid.
