ALLOW FILTERING allows to execute "some" queries that couldn't be otherwise, but not everything. Again, things that are not supported are not mainly for implementation reasons, nothing more, and that may/will change in the future. That said, I'm not saying documentation cannot be improved (though I'm not sure having the doc saying "this doesn't work" would be a lot more helpful than trying it and having the implementation saying "this doesn't work"). -- Sylvain > > Thanks, > Jens > > > On Tue, Aug 5, 2014 at 8:11 PM, Sávio S.
