Simon,
This all looks good, and at the risk of being slightly off-topic for
this thread, I just wanted to mention..

It'd be great if we could start by looking for the above requirement and
then doing join-removal when it exists and no columns from Dim are
referenced (outside of the FK reference, which must result in 'true' or
we've screwed something up).
I had been looking at this about a month ago and just ran out of time to
play with it, but it doesn't seem like it'd be terribly difficult to
do..
Thanks,
Stephen
