> Unfortunately Iceberg doesn't allow us setting the owner of the table. It uses the system-wide property "user.name" to set the owner:
> [https://github.com/apache/iceberg/blob/51a9702367e22aff635ae05f2a313a19c3ba2fb8/hive-metastore/src/main/java/org/apache/iceberg/hive/HiveTableOperations.java#L347]
> We might need Iceberg-side modifications as well to specify the owner. Alternatively we could add an exter alter_table() RPC to change the owner.
