Hello, Denis.

Thanks for the clarifications.

Sounds good for me.
All I try to say in this thread: 
Guys, please, let's take a step back and write down requirements(what we want 
to get with SQL engine).
Which features and use-cases are primary for us.

I'm sure you have done it, already during your research.

Please, share it with the community.

I'm pretty sure we would back to this document again and again during migration.
So good written design is worth it.
