As you said, there is not much use for polymorphic expressions. The time I could see this arising would be with massive super schemas that try to parse everything (eg. a dispatch on a files magic number) and developed a modular library of components. Even in such a schema it seems unlikely, but we have no experience with such schema yet. The issue here is that a small change could cause a significant performance degradation for hard to debug reasons. What we might want to do is emit a warning when this situation arises. If this turns out to be something people actually want to do we can deal with it then. Otherwise, these polymorphic expressions are probably mistakes. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
