Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-6465:
--------------------------------------

What about CREATE TABLE?  Would it also have ENABLE|DISABLE IMMUTABLILTY or 
keep on using TBLPROPERTIES("immutable"="true") as shown in HIVE-6406, or 
neither?  (According to the wiki NO_DROP and OFFLINE only exist as ALTER TABLE 
options, but maybe the doc is incomplete.)

> HIVE-6406 introduces a notion of an immutable table in hive. In essence, it 
> is a data protection feature similar to current hive protections like OFFLINE 
> and NO_DROP. Thus, rather than having its interface being people mucking 
> around TBLPROPERTIES, we should have ql grammar for it.
