Tisya Bhatia updated CALCITE-7675:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
GROUP BY ALL (CALCITE-7594) and ORDER BY ALL (CALCITE-7597) expand into every 
non-aggregate SELECT expression during validation. The expansion currently also
adds constant literals to the implicit keys.

Example:
SELECT count( * ), 42 AS c FROM emp GROUP BY ALL; – becomes GROUP BY 42
SELECT sal, 42 AS c FROM emp ORDER BY ALL; – becomes ORDER BY 42

Motivation: grouping or sorting by a constant is a no-op, and materializing it 
produces an ambiguous "GROUP BY 42" / "ORDER BY 42". On unparse round-trips 
(view / materialized-table expansion, SqlValidatorFixture#rewritesTo) it is 
re-parsed as an ordinal position under ordinal-style conformances and fails as 
out of range, and is a constant key under DEFAULT.

Proposed behaviour:
* rewriteGroupByAll / rewriteOrderByAll skip SELECT items that are a 
SqlLiteral, so a constant never becomes an implicit key. This is 
result-equivalent (one group / no reordering either way).
* Only bare literals are affected; compound constant expressions such as 1 + 1 
are SqlCalls, are never treated as ordinals, and are intentionally left alone.

Follow-up to CALCITE-7594 / CALCITE-7597; GROUP BY ALL and ORDER BY ALL only.

Description:
GROUP BY ALL (CALCITE-7594) and ORDER BY ALL (CALCITE-7597) expand into every
non-aggregate SELECT expression during validation. The expansion currently also
adds constant literals to the implicit keys.

Example:
SELECT count(*), 42 AS c FROM emp GROUP BY ALL;   -- becomes GROUP BY 42
SELECT sal, 42 AS c FROM emp ORDER BY ALL;        -- becomes ORDER BY 42

Motivation: grouping or sorting by a constant is a no-op, and materializing it
produces an ambiguous "GROUP BY 42" / "ORDER BY 42". On unparse round-trips
(view / materialized-table expansion, SqlValidatorFixture#rewritesTo) it is
re-parsed as an ordinal position under ordinal-style conformances (BABEL,
BigQuery, LENIENT, MySQL, Presto) and fails as out of range, and is a constant
key under DEFAULT -- a conformance-dependent, lossy round-trip. Reported by
Sergey Nuyanzin on the Flink dev@ thread.

Proposed behaviour:
- rewriteGroupByAll / rewriteOrderByAll skip SELECT items that are a SqlLiteral,
  so a constant never becomes an implicit key. This is result-equivalent (one
  group / no reordering either way).
- Only bare literals are affected; compound constant expressions such as 1 + 1
  are SqlCalls, are never treated as ordinals, and are intentionally left alone.

Scope:
- Follow-up to CALCITE-7594 / CALCITE-7597; GROUP BY ALL and ORDER BY ALL only.
