Review Comment:
   The _metadata file has all of the row group details/stats. If I have a 
dataset that I need to read and filter to a given date (where date is not part 
of the filesystem partitioning scheme), I can use _metadata file to filter down 
the row groups, see which files those row groups belong to and only read those 
files. Otherwise I'd have to open every file, read it's row group stats, decide 
the file doesn't have the date I'm after, close file, move to the next file, 
repeat.
