Matt Frantz commented on TINKERPOP3-793:
----------------------------------------
If you think about framing this proposal in the context of replacing a current
behavior that produces a error with one that produces a reasonable (and in many
cases desirable) outcome, does it sway your opinion?
If I wanted the current behavior, I'd rather have a {{required}} step that
works like {{map}} but throws an exception if its traversal is unproductive.
> select should stop traversal on unproductive by

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: process
> Affects Versions: 3.0.1-incubating
> Reporter: Matt Frantz
> Assignee: Marko A. Rodriguez
> Labels: breaking
> Fix For: 3.1.0-incubating

>
> Instead of throwing an exception, we should stop traversal if a {{by}} clause
> fails to produce.
> Current:
> {noformat}
> gremlin> g.V().as('a').out().out().as('b')
> .select('a', 'b')
> .by('name')
> .by(has('name', 'lop').values('name'))
> The provided start does not map to a value: v[5]->[HasStep([name.eq(lop)])]
> {noformat}
> Desired:
> {noformat}
> gremlin> g.V().as('a').out().out().as('b')
> .select('a', 'b')
> .by('name')
> .by(has('name', 'lop').values('name'))
> ==>[a:marko, b:lop]
> {noformat}
