Assuming operators are pure and don't have global side effects, is it possible to ignore any error during that check?
Iftuple is not visible it shouldn't matter, if it is visible then error will be reported by the same routine which does
filteringnow (ExecQual?).
If not, then limiting this optimization to builtin ops is something I can live with :)
