> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 0.8.0
> Reporter: N Campbell
>
> Don't make SQL applications have to wrap the union operation within a derived
> table per the SQL standard. Failing to do so results in Top level UNION is
> not supported currently; use a subquery
> i.e.
> select c1, c2 from cert.tset1 tset1 union all select c1, c2 from cert.tset2
> tset2
> vs
> select * from ( select c1, c2 from cert.tset1 tset1 union all select c1, c2
> from cert.tset2 tset2 ) T
