### What would you like to be improved? A Gravitino MySQL catalog can be configured with an instance-level JDBC URL before users select a database. However, the Flink connector requires `default-database` when initializing the catalog. Even a query with a fully qualified table name fails: ```sql SELECT * FROM mysql_catalog.my_database.my_table; ``` The error is: ```text Unable to create catalog 'mysql_catalog' Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: default-database should not be null. ``` The documented workaround is to configure `flink.bypass.default-database` in the Gravitino catalog. This requires users to select a database when configuring the catalog, even if every query specifies one explicitly. ### How should we improve? Allow the Flink connector to initialize a MySQL catalog without a configured default database and resolve fully qualified table references using the database specified in SQL. If a query requires a default database but none is configured, provide a clear error asking the user to select one. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
