> Now for Calcite, we make default parser config unquotedCasing to Lex.ORACLE.unquotedCasing(to uppercase)[1], and caseSensitive to Lex.ORACLE.caseSensitive(case sensitive true).
> So if we have a UDAF named my_func and query with sql like:
> {code:java}
> select f0, my_func(f1) from table1 group by f0;
> {code}
> We would got a unparsed sql:
> {code:java}
> SELECT F0, MY_FUNC(F1) FROM TABLE1 GROUP BY F0;
> {code}
> For CalciteCatalogReader we hard code the function look up to case sensitive true[2],
> For ListSqlOperatorTable we make the operator name lookup case sensitive true[3].
> For ReflectiveSqlOperatorTable, we make built-in operators case-insensitively[4].
> For most of the cases, we use ListSqlOperatorTable to register our UDFs[5] chained with SqlStdOperatorTable(which composite a ChainedSqlOperatorTable), which finally passed to CalciteCatalogReader for validation.
> So there are some questions i have:
> 1. Why we make built-in operators look up case-insensitively while ListSqlOperatorTable(for UDFs) case-sensitively, with default unquotedCasing of TO_UPPERCASE.
> 2. What is the usage of CalciteCatalogReader#lookupOperatorOverloads i only saw it used in a unit test LookupOperatorOverloadsTest.
> It seems that make UDF look up case-sensitively does not make any sense, users will never distinguish their function with just word cases. And i checked also MYSQL, ORACLE, POSTGRES, their UDFs are all registered case-insensitively.
