   I was excited to try this feature out -- but I couldn't figure out how to 
query the virtual columns from SQL -- is that possible? 
   
   Or does this sentence mean you plan to do it as a follow on PR
   
   > UX / SQL-layer surface for virtual columns stays deferred to the epic in 
https://github.com/apache/datafusion/issues/20135 — this follows the same 
framing alamb blessed for https://github.com/apache/datafusion/pull/20071 (the 
input_file_name() UDF).
   
   I personally prefer having APIs in the code that we are sure can work / are 
documented with examples so we know they are adequate to actually support the 
usecase
   
   I wonder if we should try and hook up the virtual columns in SQL as a draft 
PR to be sure this API is good enough 🤔
