   Let's wait for @ajantha-bhat to come back from the Summit and see what he 
thinks.
   
   Based on the discussion above we could just provide these 2 methods on the 
API:
   ```
   /**
     * Updates the partition statistics for the table.
     * <ul>
     *    <li>If there are existing stats for the table then finds the latest 
one,
     *              and does incremental stats calculation from there.
     *    <li>If there are no current stats, calculate them from scratch
     * </ul>
     */
   public static Collection<PartitionStats> computeStats(Table table) {
   ```
   and
   ```
   /**
     * Forcefully updates the partition statistics for the table. Calculates 
them from scratch 
     * and ignores previous stats. Could be used when stats corruption is 
suspected, or the 
     * incremental stats calculation is costly (too many snapshots since last 
calculation).
     */
   public static Collection<PartitionStats> reComputeStats(Table table) {
   ```
