> Fix For: Future
>
>
> Currently, parquet tables, like other filesystem tables, are treated as
> schema-less tables. But it would make sense to get the schema by reading and
> merging the footers from all of the parquet files. This will allow drill to
> validate whether a requested column exists, and throw an error before running
> the query. It will also remove the need to qualify columns with the table
> name or alias when doing a join.
