Querying an int field with single '=' returns no results, but should probably error

[jaffee]

If we have a field called size which is an int, and we query it like Count(Row(size=10)) we get 0 back.

If we query it like Count(Row(size==10)) (the correct way), we get the expected result based on the data in the field.

Row(size=10) should either (a) return an error, or (b) return the actual row 10 on the size field which would represent which records have their 9th binary digit as 1 for size. (because row 0 and 1 are used for existence and sign). I would actually lean toward the latter.

might there also be an option (c) treat Row(size=10) the same as Row(size==10)? still, i'm leaning toward (a) with some kind of "did you mean == ?" error message. while (b) is intriguing, i think it would lead to confusion and unexpected, "incorrect" results.
