   I'm not sure if it is a good idea to add these or not. The `Tables` API was never properly thought through and I think it shows in how simple it is. It works for an easy entry point, but if we want to expose catalog operations, maybe we should add a real catalog API that can be used for a metastore interface. We've been building this in Spark.
   
   Any support for that idea, instead of extending this interface when it wasn't very well designed?
