    Sorry, I had been meaning to reply sooner.  I think overloading the 
getMaxRowCount() to return rel.getRows() can create potential issues...because 
getMaxRowCount() should always return whatever is the *maximum* row count 
possible for that RelNode.  Here, if you return TableScan.getRows(), the value 
is an *estimate*, which means in reality it could be higher.   The caller might 
make incorrect decision based on this value.  
    
    I am thinking about your original motivation for the changes.  Are you 
materializing the results into a single-row table ?  It sounds like you want a 
special table scan whose max row count is 1.    Is materializing the only 
option ?   (the reason I am curious is it is odd to materialize very small data 
sets such as 1 row).
