You are right, I was confused because the REST catalog stores the metadata internally and I thought this would include the storage table. But it would be possible to store the metadata for the view in the REST catalog and still store the metadata for the storage table in a `metadata.json` file. This way the metadata-location could still be used as a pointer to the storage table. Thanks for thinking this through again. This leaves us again with the question of what to use for the storage table pointer. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
