Review comment:
       Yes metastore client provides an ability to have a filter hook 
(configured using metastore.filter.hook), this can be used to filter partitions 
on client side. Currently the default implementation doesn't filter anything 
though so I decided to leave since it requires api for partitionspec instead of 
partition.
