    What about using slf4j syntax `env.sql("SELECT * FROM {} JOIN {}", table1, table2)` ?

> Right now a user has to register a table before it can be used in SQL queries. In order to allow more fluent programming we propose calling SQL directly on a table. An underscore can be used to reference the current table:
> {code}
> myTable.sql("SELECT a, b, c FROM _ WHERE d = 12")
> {code}
