Review comment:
       Just in case, there's `getSqlIdentifier`:
   
   ```java
     public SqlTypeName getSqlTypeName() {
       // The implementations must provide non-null value, however, we keep 
this for compatibility
       return castNonNull(null);
     }
   
     public @Nullable SqlIdentifier getSqlIdentifier() {
       SqlTypeName typeName = getSqlTypeName();
       if (typeName == null) {
         return null;
       }
   ```
   
   So I would keep the method return null as before.
