> Now that allow filtering can be used more liberally, it would be nice to be able to apply a function as a predicate.  For instance, if I store a bloom filter on each row, it would be useful to be able to pass a value and a field into a function to check if the value is possibly in the set of values the bloom filter has seen.  For example:
> {code}CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION inBloom (input int, field field) CALLED ON NULL INPUT RETURNS boolean LANGUAGE java AS 'return true;'; // pretend this actual evaluates correctly 
> {code}
>  As far as I can tell, there's no way to pass inputs to a function referencing a field, and no way to use the result of the function in a predicate.  The following simple example fails:
> {code}
> cqlsh:tutorials> CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION inBloom (input int) CALLED ON NULL INPUT RETURNS boolean LANGUAGE java AS 'return true;';
> cqlsh:tutorials> select * from user where inBloom(1) = True;
> SyntaxException: line 1:32 no viable alternative at input '(' (select * from user where [inBloom](...)
> {code}
