I agree with you, but I don't think it's succinct to create another abstract 
class or interface. Different users have different requirements for 
normalization rules. It's hard to say that we should completely control it. I 
think we should expose the original calling interface to users. Adding new 
methods in `RelOptPlanner` is only used in the single test of calcite. In fact, 
we directly call the 
`org.apache.calcite.plan.RelOptMaterializations#useMaterializedViews(RelNode, 
List<RelOptMaterialization>, List<SubstitutionVisitor.UnifyRule>)` for 
materialized view recognition and materialized view registration. It's very 
simple and convenient to use, and the normalization rules before materialized 
view recognition are the same. I think it's a better way to extend the existing 
interface. What do you think?

> In current code of MaterializedViewSubstitutionVisitor, all matching rules 
> are internal defined. The existing rules support the most popular scenarios. 
> But my customers sometimes ask for the ability to self define some matching 
> rules, thus to support some special scenarios.
> I take below example as an illustration:
> {code:java}
> Query:
> select * from table
> where from_unixtime(_EVENT_TIME_, "yyyymmdd hh") >= "20190909 00"
> and from_unixtime(_EVENT_TIME_, "yyyymmdd hh") <= "20190909 23" ;
> Materialized View:
> select * from table 
> where from_unixtime(_EVENT_TIME_, "yyyymmdd") = "20190909";{code}
> It's hard to enumerate the matching pattern for different functions in 
> internal matching rules. We can expose a method to register new UnifyRules 
> and allow user to extend the ability of MV matching
