> So I think either this is a Catalog API or we just have this as part of the "drop table" behavior. We already have a catalog-specific API. Which is `catalog.dropTable(identifier, purge=false)` this procedure is just calling that. "Drop table" SQL also already has purge and without purge syntax. But without purge will still look up the table due to spark integration (callstack mentioned in the issue). Hence, user cannot use it and need the same functionality from SQL. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
