Carl Steinbach commented on HIVE-2090:
--------------------------------------
So it sounds like downversion clients can talk to upversion servers, but what
about the reverse? If the client sends a message that includes the force
parameter, will a downversion server simply ignore the additional parameter?
> Add "DROP DATABASE ... FORCE"

> A "DROP DATABASE ... FORCE" will be useful, when we use a database for
> isolation when doing some tests. Being able to force cleaning up the database
> will make test cleaning up easier.
