Review comment:
       Yea so I grepped through the instances it throws in Hive code base, it 
is always like Precondition check in Iceberg for user-error, and never proceeds 
further.
   
   This is a github search (which unfortunately returns only a few top results):
   
   
https://github.com/search?q=%22throw+new+InvalidObjectException*%22+repo%3Aapache%2Fhive&type=code
   
   My grep finds it thrown only in these classes which you can also 
double-check inside:
   
https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/metadata/SessionHiveMetaStoreClient.java
   
https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/standalone-metastore/metastore-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/HiveAlterHandler.java
   
https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/standalone-metastore/metastore-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/ObjectStore.java
   
https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/standalone-metastore/metastore-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/StatObjectConverter.java
   
https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/standalone-metastore/metastore-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/HMSHandler.java
   
   
   It should not be thrown when Hive commits successfully, or disconnect issue, 
if that is the fear?  Maybe @pvary can verify?
