Review Comment:
   OTOH with the setting `DROP_FULL_TABLE_FOLDER` we really assume that only 
this table puts files into these folders. If other table(s) put data to this 
folder the we would not like to use this config.
   
   That said, we still might have problems with leftover uncommitted files 
which are not yet removed with `deleteOrphanFiles`
