Michael Bouschen commented on JDO-243:
--------------------------------------

my $0.02:
I think it is dangerous to automatically add the field to the grouping, because 
this changes the semantics of the query as specified by the user. How do you 
know that the user forgot to add the field to the grouping. Maybe the error is 
a missing aggregate for the result field: "SELECT department, AVG(salary) FROM 
...". 
I would prefer throwing an error and let the user fix the query.
