Unable to create tables automatically with Iceberg REST and AWS Glue

Question

I was trying to set up Kafka connector against AWS Glue with rest catalog type and with S3FIleIO.
What I faced with is that I did not managed to configure the location for tables in Glue with iceberg.tables.auto-create-enabled being enabled. The only way that worked for me to connect to Glue is by specifying my AWS account id as warehouse in config and in the end as far as I understand the connector is not able to figure out what should be the location for table it is trying to create.
I'm getting Malformed request: Cannot parse missing string: location as a response from AWS API since REST catalog is not providing the location because it is not specified here

iceberg/api/src/main/java/org/apache/iceberg/catalog/Catalog.java

Line 93 in f0149a5

return createTable(identifier, schema, spec, null, properties);

Is there any known workaround to make this working? Or am I doing something wrong?
