Why is it odd for a complex column to support SUM? In our current use-case, we have a complex column that represents a histogram. That can be queried with a custom aggregator to get an aggregated histogram or compute percentiles. It can also be queried as a SUM to get the population of the histogram. It seems totally reasonable to me to allow complex columns to support SUM, and better to use standard aggregators than force the column to be queried using custom aggregators that are effectively doing the same thing as the standard ones. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
