### Feature Request / Improvement Hi pyiceberg community, Is there a more efficient way than the API `table.inspect.partitions()` to query specific partitions? The `table.inspect.partitions()` seems expensive as it reads all manifest files, especially when the table has many partitions, while we only need to check a few recent partitions. I have a few questions about this use case: - Is there any more efficient way to do this that I am missing? - If not, can I propose something like `partitions_filtered(partition_filter)` to get the specific partition by reusing the work https://github.com/apache/iceberg-python/blob/5ee5eeac076b7d3e12ced7f59d4331c2e2f2ceec/pyiceberg/table/__init__.py#L1918 Thanks! -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
