[jira] [Created] (IMPALA-5913) Add search path functionality for object resolution

Greg Rahn created IMPALA-5913:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Add search path functionality for object resolution
                 Key: IMPALA-5913
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-5913
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Frontend
            Reporter: Greg Rahn
            Priority: Minor


Systems like Postgres and Vertica allow users to set a search path to find tables and user-defined functions that are not fully qualified.  This functionality would allow users to resolve objects easily that are not in the current schema.
