> Good part of the user-facing Asterix functions assume strongly typed arguments, which prevents passing values of open fields as the arguments into such functions. 
> Instead type checks should be carried out at runtime in functionDescriptors (again in many cases they already are there).
> Default policy should allow function arguments to have the needed type or to have type ANY and fail in runtime if type check is not succeeded.
> All type computer implementations in package org.apache.asterix.om.typecomputer.impl and appropriate functionDescriptors should be investigated.
