Review Comment:
   I'm not sure this is inconsistent. The HMS table property 
`metadata_location` has a special meaning if the table belongs to the hive 
catalog. It is also treated differently in our `HiveTableOperations` class, 
refreshing the metadata based on the value of this property.
   In the case of tables from other catalog types, this is just a regular table 
property and it doesn't have any highlighted meaning. So I run an alter query I 
would expect that the table property is changed but nothing else.
