sam lin commented on FLINK-17852:
---------------------------------

[~f.pompermaier]: Nope, this is for SELECT statement, the issue you pointed is 
CREATE statement. The name after WITH acts like a variable stores the resulting 
values of sub-sql.

> FlinkSQL support WITH clause in query statement

> Many modern SQL language support WITH clause in query statement.  e.g.
> ```
> WITH myName AS (
>   select * from table where ...
> )
> select column1 from myName
> ```
> e.g. In BeamSQL supports this: 
> [https://beam.apache.org/documentation/dsls/sql/calcite/query-syntax/] 
> query_statement: [ WITH with_query_name AS ( query_expr ) [, ...] ] 
> query_expr.
> In presto, supports this as well: 
> [https://prestodb.io/docs/current/sql/select.html#with-clause]
