   I'm not sure we want to allow those other operations, since I'm not sure 
they actually have a lot of meaning. Like a rename on a path based table in a 
filesystem without renames means a full copy of the entire dataset. So it may 
be best to treat file based path's as static or at least immovable.
   
   I think we probably could identify path based tables based on the namespace 
too, like "parquet or file" or something. I'll take a look today
