    @hvanhovell The thought is that it is better to all commands by Spark 
because asking hive to execute some commands may introduce inconsistent 
behaviors or failures with bad error messages. Also, we can reduce the 
dependence on hive at the execution side. For commands shown in this PR, since 
we do not support them right now, we just throw exceptions.
