------------------------------------------------
[~julianhyde], I think in Oracle this is similar to GROUPING_ID function.
> Implement multiargument GROUPING function

> Per the SQL standard section 6.9:
> GROUPING ( CR1, ..., CRN-1, CRN )
> is equivalent to:
> CAST ( ( 2 * GROUPING ( CR1, ..., CRN-1 ) + GROUPING ( CRN ) ) AS IDT )
> So for example:
> select c1, c2, c3, grouping(c1, c2, c3) from e011_02 group by rollup(c1, c2,
> c3);
> Should be allowed and equivalent to:
> select c1, c2, c3, 4*grouping(c1) + 2*grouping(c2) + grouping(c3) from
> e011_02 group by rollup(c1, c2, c3);
