I guess I don't understand, because I would say "always". If an outer
join was required for an Expression, but Cayenne didn't generate it,
then generate an Exception.
Isn't it unambigous when an Expression as a Qualifier requires an
OUTER JOIN or some other SQL construct that Cayenne does not support?
