--------------------------------------------

What do you think of SchemaTool? Currently, it is in BeeLine module most likely because it uses BeeLine to initialize or upgrade the schema.

> As part of making the metastore a separately releasable module we need configuration tools that are specific to that module.  It cannot use or extend HiveConf as that is in hive common.  But it must take a HiveConf object and be able to operate on it.
> The best way to achieve this is using Hadoop's Configuration object (which HiveConf extends) together with enums and static methods.
