Julian Hyde resolved CALCITE-497.
---------------------------------
       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 1.0.0-incubating

Fixed in 
http://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-calcite/commit/175d0705.

In the change I have implemented, if a field is a record type, you can access 
its fields (and recursively their fields) without qualifiers if the field names 
are unique.

So, this is useful for any document-oriented schema that is strongly typed, not 
just Phoenix. Phoenix would just use two levels (a column group is represented 
as a record, and each column in that group is a field of that record), but we 
could handle any number of levels, and we can handle a row type whose fields 
are a mixture of scalars and records.

> Support optional qualifier for column name references

> Some systems, such as HBase, have a named group to which columns belong (i.e. 
> a column family in this case). To disambiguate column references (i.e. if the 
> same column name is used in different column families), it's useful to allow 
> an optional qualifier. This is similar to the RECORD field mechanism that 
> Calcite already supports, but in this case the record name would be optional, 
> since it's not necessary if the column names are unique. For example: 
> http://phoenix.apache.org/language/index.html#column_ref
