Thejas M Nair commented on PIG-3089:
------------------------------------
In my opinion, too many rules for implicit relation names would make pig
scripts (written by others) hard to read, specially for people who are new to
pig. I think it is better to just allow name of preceding relation to be
referred using a special notation.
