> Currently, the scope resolution operator :: is stored as part of the field schema alias. As a result, users may get confused by queries like:
> {code}
> a = load 'st10k' as (name, age, gpa);
> b = group a by name;
> c = foreach b generate flatten(a);
> d = filter c by name != 'fred';
> e = group d by name;
> f = foreach e generate flatten(d);
> g = foreach f generate name;
> {code}
> With PIG-451, the schema for f will have a column with aliases a::name and d::a::name. The use of d::a::name is particularly confusing.
