  /// Consider a property expression D(v, "j3.j2.j1.a.x")
  /// where v is a VarRef, j1, j2, j3 are joins, a is an extent and x is a columns.
  /// This has to be translated eventually into {j'}.{x'}

  /// The source field represents the outermost SqlStatement representing a join
  /// expression (say j2) - this is always a Join symbol.

  /// The column field keeps moving from one join symbol to the next, until it
  /// stops at a non-join symbol.
  /// 
  /// This is returned by <see cref="SqlGenerator.Visit(DbPropertyExpression)"/>,
