Support for referencing non-root entities in Criteria SQL expressions
---------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HHH-2952
                 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2952
             Project: Hibernate3
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: query-criteria
    Affects Versions: 3.2.2
         Environment: Java 5, MySQL 5.0, Eclipse 3.2
            Reporter: Jacob Gyllenstierna


It would be very helpful to be able to reference non-root entities in Criteria SQL restrictions and projections using placeholders similar to {alias}. A very simple but uninteresting example:

criteria.createAlias("group", "g");
criteria.add(Restrictions.sqlRestriction("{g}.id=:groupId"));
