Description
We already have **partial support for Iceberg v3** in the codebase (e.g., Row Lineage and partition statistics). However, a number of key v3 features are still missing.
This issue serves as a **parent tracking issue** for the remaining v3 work we plan to (partially) include in the **0.3.0 release**.
If you are interested in working on any of the items below, please **open a dedicated sub-issue** and link it back to this one.
