Prasad Chakka commented on HIVE-591:
------------------------------------

this means that user will not be able to add unrelated predicates in the join 
clause similar to what can be done in regular join. wouldn't that be a good 
thing to have?

> create new type of join ( 1 row for a given key from multiple tables)

> It will be useful to support a new type of join:
> say:
> select .. from JOIN TABLES (A,B,C) WITH KEYS (A.key, B.key, C.key) where ....
> The semantics are that for a given key only 1 row is created - nulls are 
> present for the the tables which do not contain a row for that key.
> There is no limit on the number of tables, the number of keys should be the 
> same as the number of tables.
