Well, I agree something like OP_fetch is necessary.

Is there a ticket for adding CHECK constraint on a non-empty
space?

We need to add a general do-any-alter-by-rebuild algorithm so that
all such features work by rebuilding a table. We could optimize
these later.

 *No* SQL feature is usable unless DDL related to this feature
 works on a non-empty space, at least somehow.

Good.
