This is awesome. It seems like any API is really just abstracting the database (or other data store) behind it. But, if only we could just expose the db directly and let users write their own queries to get exactly what they want. That way they could select exactly the fields they want like with Graphql, and write joins to simplify multiple requests into one. I wonder what is still preventing this from being reality? Not enough permission support on the db, or fears of performance issues from badly written user queries?
