    Description

      As discussed in https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r602ac95fff23dd1ef974fb396df7be061ab861384ec42f5c57ce0bc2%40%3Cdev.calcite.apache.org%3E I would like to change the way a type of a field of a record is derived at couple of locations. This helps frameworks such as Apache Flink to build support for nullable records with not null fields.

      I suggest to change:

      • SqlDotOperator#deriveType
      • SqlItemOperator#inferReturnType
      • AliasNamespace#validateImpl
      • RexBuilder#makeFieldAccessInternal
      • SqlValidatorImpl.DeriveTypeVisitor#visit(SqlIdentifier)
