pure virtual

True if this query expression can absorb an extraneous order by/limit clause.

The ORDER BY/LIMIT syntax is mostly consistestent, i.e. a trailing clause may not refer to the tables in the <query primary>, with one glaring exception:

(...( SELECT ... )...) ORDER BY ...

If the nested query expression doesn't contain ORDER BY, the statement is interpreted as if the ORDER BY was absorbed by the innermost query expression, i.e.:

(...( SELECT ... ORDER BY ... )...)

There is no rewriting of the parse tree nor AST happening here, the transformation is done by the contextualizer (see PT_query_expression::contextualize_order_and_limit), which interprets the parse tree, and builds the AST according to this interpretation. This interpretation is governed by the following rule: An ORDER BY can be absorbed if none the nested query expressions contains an ORDER BY or LIMIT. The rule is complex, so here are some examples for illustration:

In these cases the ORDER BY is absorbed:

( SELECT * FROM t1 ) ORDER BY t1.a;
(( SELECT * FROM t1 )) ORDER BY t1.a;

In these cases the ORDER BY is not absorbed:

( SELECT * FROM t1 ORDER BY 1 ) ORDER BY t1.a;
(( SELECT * FROM t1 ) ORDER BY 1 ) ORDER BY t1.a;
( SELECT * FROM t1 LIMIT 1 ) ORDER BY t1.a;
(( SELECT * FROM t1 ) LIMIT 1 ) ORDER BY t1.a;

The same happens with LIMIT, obviously, but the optimizer is freeer to choose when to apply the limit, and there are name no resolution issues involved.
