Sam An commented on HIVE-22225:
-------------------------------

Thanks, Naveen. As communicated offline. I believe we should be OK in not 
automatically filling in the ownership for null owner DBs. The reasons are

First, it might not be always possible to figure who owns the DB.

Second, if ownership is needed, the user can ask admin to assign a new owner.

Once 22225 goes in, most likely null ownership won’t happen much.

> add owner name for create database if missing

> When Spark connects to HMS, the database owner name is not filled. This could 
> happen to other clients as well. We shall fill this in HMS. Ownership info is 
> useful for authorizer component in Ranger, etc.
