Description

Path like db:year causes expression parser to fail even if this is a normal DB attribute name.
There's no workaround for this, if you need to parse expression from string.

Fix would be to allow such names for explicit path syntax (i.e. for obj:, db:, dbid: and enum:). If needed this could be added to the simple object path as well at the cost of some performance degradation.
