Chao commented on HIVE-8024:
----------------------------

I think there's a problem removing union op in place. Suppose there's a plan 
for multi-insertion looks like this:

{code}
      TS_0       TS_2
        \        /
          UNION_3
        /       \
      SEL_1    SEL_4
{code}

(I ignored some operators)
Currently, {{TS_0}} and {{TS_2}} will be in two MapWorks, which have separate 
plans, like following:

{code}
          TS_0              TS_2
         /    \            /    \
      SEL_1   SEL_4      SEL_1  SEL_4
{code}

If we remove the union operator from the original tree, the result may not be 
correct.

> Currently, after operator tree is processed, the generated works with union 
> operators will go through {{GenSparkUtils::removeUnionOperators}}, which will 
> clone the original operator plan associated with the work, and remove union 
> operators in it. This caused some issues as seen, for example, in HIVE-7870. 
> This JIRA is created to find out whether it's possible to just remove the 
> union operators in the original plan.
