-----------------------------------

             Summary: Drill needs a per-query option to force a sort for 
non-covering indexed queries
                 Key: DRILL-5462
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-5462
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Execution - Relational Operators
    Affects Versions: 1.10.0
            Reporter: Chris Westin


For storage systems like MapR-DB, which don't have a consistent read/snapshot 
model, it's possible for records to change between the time they are found in 
an index, and the time they are looked up in a primary table. If the index is 
being relied upon to satisfy a sort, then it's possible that by the time the 
rows are fetched from the primary table that they are no longer in sorted order.

Sometimes developers depend on an "order by" returning rows in the correct 
order. In order to make sure that happens, there needs to be a per-query option 
to force a sort on the result set in this case.
