Research direction
Start by studying the existing Spark catalog behavior described as analogous to Iceberg's SparkSessionCatalog and the Flink HiveCatalog that this feature would merge with. The issue provides no files, tests, or detailed acceptance criteria, so clarify the generic mode's scope and expected behavior before implementation.
