   One issue with this is: how do we ensure that the chunk index is not lying? 
SedonaDB internals typically see one raster a time, but an application using 
other columns can make sure that it's only working with a table that is a 
raster. From SedonaDB's end, we can't typically know if somebody has unioned 
this with some other raster table. (Feel free to correct me if I'm missing 
something here).
   
   Broadly this gets at the higher level question: is a raster a row, is a 
raster a column, or is a raster a table? Or do rasters participate in 
relational algebra at all? (i.e., should we always just keep Raster objects as 
Raster objects and write our own ExecutionPlans for these ops if we need to 
play games like this to get acceptable performance?)
