That looks perfect, looking forward to it!
I was doing a little more research and it looks like MySQL doesn't support table valued functions at all right now -- not built-ins, not custom. I didn't realize that, I guess I just assumed that was a fundamental feature.
Probably explains the longstanding lack of STRING_SPLIT() etc., I guess.
Here's hoping you are able to get in a more generic support for table valued functions, including stuff like STRING_SPLIT() as well as custom table returning functions.
