Description

The following sequence of actions should work, but currently doesn't:

[localhost:21000] > use functional;
Query: use functional
[localhost:21000] > create view v1 as (select * from alltypes);
Query: create view v1 as (select * from alltypes)

Returned 0 row(s) in 0.58s
[localhost:21000] > use default;
Query: use default
[localhost:21000] > select * from functional.v1;
Query: select * from functional.v1
ERROR: AnalysisException: Table does not exist: default.alltypes

The reason is that toSql() doesn't always produce fully-qualified table names.
