   Hey everyone, I think we should split out the idea of implementing the full 
hadoop catalog, and just being able to read a table from a metadata URL. For 
the latter, I've created a new issue: 
https://github.com/apache/iceberg/issues/6430
   
   My apologies for invoking the negative feelings around the HadoopCatalog, 
and I fully agree that this is something we should avoid in PyIceberg. However, 
I do see a lot of value in just reading (not writing!) and just using a path to 
the metadata.
   
   @srilman I've recently started working on [integration 
tests](https://github.com/apache/iceberg/pull/6398) that write tables using 
Spark (since PyIceberg doesn't have any read support), and these are shared 
using the RestCatalog. Would love to get your thoughts on that!
