    yeah.. although this might be tough, it doesn't look terribly likely that 
we want to introduce a lot. We had a conversation about it with @pferrel who 
added a bunch of ??? stuff to H20Engine which do not seem terribly relevant to 
algebraic stuff (to me). We agreed that if indexed format is needed, perhaps 
this is something to solve ouside of individual backend scope. Either way, 
something pending as ??? forever is not the effect we want -- and i suggest to 
apply a higher level of scrutiny on what is going on there. 
    
    
    in my case, motivation of adding (replacing) dedicated physical operator 
computing elementwise scalar operation with elementwise function operator is 
pretty clear. it allows to detect and optimize and fuse more general 
elementwise cases on upper level of optimizations, such as for example 1 + drmP 
* dlog(drmP), into one physical map. Also it detects some very important and 
frequent enough  cases like X * X (self-hadamard) and sends it into this unary 
elementwise function instead of AewB.
    
    But in case of indexed dictionary structure i am not sure i have heard  
convincing arguments this needs to be there... at least in the algebraic engine 
itself... i am perfectly fine with quasi-algebraic support with what @pferrel  
is doing. I can quite imagine this will not be an outlier case...
