I think it is important that the funcionality lies in the database
engine itself: In that way it can more efficiently make use of the
optimizer.
Also, I think this "recursive" feature is *the* most important upcoming
improvements: Currently there are simply no efficient way of fetching
linked structures, which however is quite common in many areas.
