They are both describing expressions. I wanted to rename Item as Expr,
if you'll recall. But I think we should have a concrete plan about
all the tweaks we want to make to the output schema before doing
anything, so I haven't pushed to change it immediately.
I don't see anything wrong with Output --- what else would you call the
output expressions of a node?
