This sounds like a reasonable approach to me, but as I mentioned before,
I'm not very familiar with the analyzer and company.

Excellent, I'll play around with it.

I'm generally not a huge fan of recursion simply because it's often
overrated and overused and implements a limit based on stack depth which
can cause unexpected failures. Can we be confident that the recursion
added here doesn't add a new limit on the size/complexity of queries
which, if hit, will cause a stack overflow? I notice that we do use
recursion in some other places, but we also occationally have checks to
prevent recursing too far.

Thanks so much for your help! It's definitely appriciated. I'm going
to try and play with your patch today and probably add some additional
regression tests and make sure everything works as expected.
Thanks again!
