James Taylor commented on PHOENIX-978:
--------------------------------------
For the extra check that's necessary, see PHOENIX-2058. We were trying to be
less restrictive, as I think a common use case might be to add a column at the
view first, and then realize later that you want that column to be added to the
base table.
> Allow views to extend base table's PK

> CREATE VIEW syntax currently disallows PK constraint to be defined. As a
> result views and tenant-specific tables created using CREATE VIEW
> automatically inherit their base table's PK with no way to extend it.
> Base tables should be allowed to be created with a minimum of PK columns to
> support views, and views to extend PKs as desired. This would allow a single
> base table to support a heterogeneous set of views on top of it.
