Aman Sinha commented on DRILL-1937:
-----------------------------------

Since you will throw an error even if the subquery returns 1 value (e.g with 
LIMIT 1), it is better to say: "Non-scalar subquery used in an expression."
Also, the unit tests should test for the derived unsupported exceptions. 

> Disable internal function SINGLE_VALUE()

> It is dangerous to have an internal function be exposed to users.
