Julian Hyde commented on CALCITE-1913:
--------------------------------------

I think we should strike a balance between putting the logic outside the 
dialect (e.g. switch statements in SqlImplementor) and inside the dialect (i.e. 
methods in SqlDialect that can be overridden in sub-classes). Both ends of the 
spectrum can lead to ridiculous code.

I'm not 100% against adding version to SqlDialect. But it would make it easier 
to over-use switch statements.

And by the way, a particular feature might be introduced in database version X 
but people might choose not to use it until version Y. Depending too much on 
versions would make it difficult to deal with that case.
