    Can you pls add a comment that convert_fromjson() currently can only used 
as a top level function (it can not be nested in other function)? Otherwise, we 
have to walk through the expression tree to check the existence of this 
function. 
    
    Tried with convert_to(convert_from(t.jsonstr, 'json'), 'json'), and it hit 
NPE in execution.
