There's a PR in progress that will introduce 'REPLACE TABLE' support, but I don't think we've come to a consensus yet on how we would want to support 'AS SELECT' semantics in PyIceberg, and if we want to introduce it at all. If we wanted to, I think we could update all `create_table...` and `replace_table...` operations that take something like `as_select: pa.Table = None` as an optional parameter and add a snapshot update with full table static overwrite to the new table metadata. Does that sound like a reasonable enhancement? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
