-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Isn't this equivalent to say that "ENAME" is an alternative to the 
"Must-filter-fields"?

In that case I think it's simpler to extend the syntax to provide multiple 
"Must-filter-fields" lists, something like "[EMPNO, DEPTNO],[ENAME]" (a list of 
lists, conceptually, where each list is an independent alternative).

>From your example it's not clear if multiple by-pass fields values would 
>require to be there at the same time (very much like "Must-filter-fields"), or 
>if any of them alone would do.

For instance, for Bypass-fields: [ENAME, EMPNO], would the following queries be 
valid or not?

SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE ENAME = ’name’
SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE EMPNO = 1 

In any case, the multiple "Must-filter-fields" syntax would allow to express 
both pretty naturally.

You can even probably re-use the same machinery you coded for 
"Must-filter-fields" more easily.

WDYT?

>          Issue Type: Improvement

>
> In [CALCITE-6219] we introduced SemanticTable, where tables that implement 
> this interface can define fields to be ‘must-filter’, and a query without 
> those filters in any of its WHERE or HAVING clauses, it will throw a 
> validation error.
>  
> I would like to extend this functionality to support a by-pass list of fields 
> such that if any field from this secondary list is present in a WHERE / 
> HAVING clause, then the must-filter fields can be ignored and will not raise 
> an exception if not filtered on. 
>  
> Ex.
>  
> EMP table specifies the following:
> Must-filter-fields: [EMPNO, DEPTNO]
> Bypass-fields: [ENAME]
>  
>  
> SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE EMPNO = 1 and DEPTNO = 2 -> No error
> SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE EMPNO = 1 -> Error
> SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE EMPNO = 1 and ENAME = ’name’ -> No error
> SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE ENAME = ’name’ -> No error
>  
>  
>  
> Again, special considerations are for handling 
>  
>  * Joins
>  * CTEs
>  * Subqueries
>  
>  
> And a similar exhaustive suite of tests like the one for [CALCITE-6219] 
> should be employed
