Work Description: kanterov commented on issue #8006: [BEAM-6772] Change
Select semantics to match what a user expects
URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/8006#issuecomment-472591549
It created a schema with nested records, to confirm I did an experiment:
```sql
CREATE TABLE `test.test_schema` AS
SELECT location FROM test.test;
```
And I got:
```
location | RECORD | NULLABLE |
-- | -- | -- | --
location. latitude | FLOAT | NULLABLE |
location. longtitude | FLOAT | NULLABLE
```

> Key: BEAM-6772
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-6772
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: sdk-java-core
> Reporter: Reuven Lax
> Assignee: Reuven Lax
> Priority: Major
> Time Spent: 2h 20m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> Consider the following schema:
> User:
> name: STRING
> location: Location
>
> Location:
> latitude: DOUBLE
> longitude: DOUBLE
>
> If you apply Select.fieldNames("location"), most users expect to get back a
> row matching the Location schema. Instead you get back an outer schema with a
> single location field in it. Select should instead unnest the output up to
> the point where multiple fields are selected.
