   > we need to add a new table option, and check it on whether or not to make 
the commit in the MergingSnapshotProducer apply method.
   
   What would you suggest as the name of this configuration option? How about 
one of the following?
   
   1. `commit.allow-empty.enabled`, default: `false`
   2. `commit.skip-empty.enabled`, default: `true`
   3. `commit.omit-empty.enabled`, default: `true`
   
   Having the verb first is different than an existing option that has the 
affected entity followed by the action, i.e. noun and then verb:

   Some other options:
   
   * `empty-allow` or `empty-skip` or `empty-omit` seems unintuitive?
   * `empty-allowed.enabled` or `empty-skipped.enabled` or 
`empty-omitted.enabled` stutters a bit?
   * `empty.enabled` might be ambiguous?
