Hi Luoc,

Thanks for reminding me about the EVF V2 work. I got mostly done adding
projection for complex types, then got busy on other projects. I've yet to
tackle the hard cases: unions, repeated unions and repeated lists (which
are, in fact, repeated repeated unions).

The code to handle unprojected fields in these areas is getting awfully
complicated. In doing that work, and then seeing a trick that Druid uses,
I'm tempted to rework the projection bits of the code to use a cleaner
approach. However, it might be better to commit the work done thus far so
folks can use it before I wander off to take another approach.

Then, I wondered if anyone actually still uses this stuff. Do you still
need the code to handle non-projection of complex types?

Of course, perhaps no one will ever need the hard cases: I've never been
convinced that unions, repeated lists, or arrays of repeated lists are
things that any sane data engineer will want to use -- or use more than
once.

Thanks,

- Paul
