   Very much agree. Definitely the thing I like least about #2269 
   
   I was thinking about a `BranchingCatalog` or `BranchSupport` or something interface which would add CRUD operations for references to a `Catalog`. The only current implementer would be the `NessieCatalog` but then the spark extensions don't need to know about Nessie and #2269 would be simplified by being able to call Catalog methods directly rather than building a Nessie Client in the extension.
   
   I will open up a PR for that to keep it separate from #2269
