Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-13555:
-----------------------------------------

I think it makes sense to stick to standard on this. Since we are implementing 
this specifically to meet standards requirement. Otherwise workaround using 
case statement already exists. Postgres implementation is a good standard to 
follow.
