Well, this probably requires some generic method(s) in Dataset/Model as well, something like:
T apply(Function<Dataset, T> f); This would allow nice chaining of multiple queries, e.g DESCRIBE and SELECT: ResultSet results = dataset.apply(describe).apply(select); Seems more elegant to me than all the QueryExecution boilerplate.
