We don't have to intercept inline string arguments. We just have to make
sure that `Table.toString()` returns an unique identifier that the method
previously registered in it's table environment. `Table.toString()` should then
always return the same identifier.
> Directly allow SQL queries on a Table

> Reporter: Timo Walther
> Assignee: Jark Wu
>
> Right now a user has to register a table before it can be used in SQL
> queries. In order to allow more fluent programming we propose calling SQL
> directly on a table. An underscore can be used to reference the current table:
> {code}
> myTable.sql("SELECT a, b, c FROM _ WHERE d = 12")
> {code}
