It's come to my attention that this message is easily seen as a
proposal of concrete syntax. Sorry, but that's not what I intended.

I was trying to break the logjam re: 4.6 by pointing out two thing:

1. At least one other query language, RQL, has support for these kinds
   of queries.

2. I would be satisfied to consider 4.6 as motivating some subset of
   these kinds of queries. That is, I'm trying to be flexible: I will
   be happy with the "easy" subset, if we can identify it.

Sorry the message was unclear.
