In the current implementation of the catalog, an event stream and its associated schema must exist for a table to be created. However, there might be some instances where you would want to write to a topic that doesn't have a schema, or even borrow a schema from a different event stream.

There should be some options to allow this, prefixed with unsafe so people know what they're getting into.

'unsafe.no-validation'='true',
'unsafe.schema-from'='test.event.schema'

Having no validation would probably also mean disabling the event normalization completely. There might also have to be some guardrails in place so that these options can't be used on event streams found in the event stream config.
