Owen O'Malley commented on HIVE-6936:
-------------------------------------
My concern with removing the "table." prefix is that it becomes possible to
clobber security settings. For example, creating a table with the
"hive.security.authorization.manager" table property shouldn't allow the query
to override the setting.
For a compromise, how about removing the table prefix, but we check to see if
that key has a value in the configuration and won't override such a value. Does
that make sense?

> Some advanced file formats need the table properties made available to them.
> Additionally, it would be convenient to provide a unique id for fetch
> operators and the complete list of directories.
