> This is a long standing quirk of the interaction between {{DataFrameWriter}} and {{CreatableRelationProvider}} (and the other forms of the DSV1 API).  Users can specify columns in {{partitionBy}} and our internal data sources will use this information.  Unfortunately, for external systems, this data is silently dropped with no feedback given to the user.
> In the long run, I think that DataSourceV2 is a better answer. However, I don't think we should wait for that API to stabilize before offering some kind of solution to developers of external data sources. I also do not think we should break binary compatibility of this API, but I do think that  small surgical fix could alleviate the issue.
> I would propose that we could propagate partitioning information (when present) along with the other configuration options passed to the data source in the {{String, String}} map.
> I think its very unlikely that there are both data sources that validate extra options and users who are using (no-op) partitioning with them, but out of an abundance of caution we should protect the behavior change behind a {{legacy}} flag that can be turned off.
