> This is a central requirement for hash-aggregations such as
> {code}
> SELECT AGG_FUNCTION(expr)
> FROM table
> GROUP BY expr1, expr2, ...
> {code}
> The materialized keys in the GROUP BY section form a struct, which can be incrementally hashed to produce dictionary codes suitable for computing aggregates or any other purpose. 
> There are a few subtasks related to this, such as efficiently constructing a record (that can be hashed quickly) to identify each "row" in the struct. Maybe we should start with that first
