Naveen Gangam commented on HIVE-12184:
--------------------------------------
It was already supported prior to this change. I dint have to do anything

other children for such usage.
There are existing unit tests that tested this behavior
clientpositive/describe_xpath.q and clientnegative/describe{1..4}.q
