This looks like a great improvement. Repeating Nicolas's question, do you
have a real-world example of such joins?
In my experience, I see more queries like "self-join table A and table B
where A.time BETWEEN B.time - '1 week' and B.time", similar to
what Nicolas and Tom mentioned. As an example, "count users who placed an
order in the week following their registration".
Can you send a patch so we can also try it?
Thanks,
-- Hadi
