+  The class Item_equal is used to represent conjuctions of equality
+  predicates of the form field1 = field2, and field=const in where
+  conditions and on expressions.
+ 
+  All equality predicates of the form field1=field2 contained in a 
+  conjuction are substituted for a sequence of items of this class.
+  An item of this class Item_equal(f1,f2,...fk) respresents a
+  multiple equality f1=f2=...=fk.
+
+  If a conjuction contains predicates f1=f2 and f2=f3, a new item of
+  this class is created Item_equal(f1,f2,f3) representing the multiple
+  equality f1=f2=f3 that substitutes the above equality predicates in
+  the conjuction.
+  A conjuction of the predicates f2=f1 and f3=f1 and f3=f2 will be
+  substituted for the item representing the same multiple equality
+  f1=f2=f3.
+  An item Item_equal(f1,f2) can appear instead of a conjuction of 
+  f2=f1 and f1=f2, or instead of just the predicate f1=f2.
+
+  An item of the class Item_equal inherites equalities from outer 
+  conjunctive levels.
+
+  Suppose we have a where condition of the following form:
+  WHERE f1=f2 AND f3=f4 AND f3=f5 AND ... AND (...OR (f1=f3 AND ...)).
+  In this case:
+    f1=f2 will be substituted for Item_equal(f1,f2);
+    f3=f4 and f3=f5  will be substituted for Item_equal(f3,f4,f5);
+    f1=f3 will be substituted for Item_equal(f1,f2,f3,f4,f5);
+
+  An object of the class Item_equal can contain an optional constant
+  item c. Thenit represents a multiple equality of the form 
+  c=f1=...=fk.
+
+  Objects of the class Item_equal are used for the following:
+
+  1. An object Item_equal(t1.f1,...,tk.fk) allows us to consider any
+  pair of tables ti and tj as joined by an equi-condition.
+  Thus it provide us with additional access paths from table to table.
+
+  2. An object Item_equal(t1.f1,...,tk.fk) is applied to deduce new
+  SARGable predicates:
+    f1=...=fk AND P(fi) => f1=...=fk AND P(fi) AND P(fj).
+  It also can give us additional index scans and can allow us to
+  improve selectivity estimates.
+
+  3. An object Item_equal(t1.f1,...,tk.fk) is used to optimize the 
+  selected execution plan for the query: if table ti is accessed 
+  before the table tj then in any predicate P in the where condition
+  the occurence of tj.fj is substituted for ti.fi. This can allow
+  an evaluation of the predicate at an earlier step.
+
+  When feature 1 is supported they say that join transitive closure 
+  is employed.
+  When feature 2 is supported they say that search argument transitive
+  closure is employed.
+  Both features are usually supported by preprocessing original query and
+  adding additional predicates.
+  We do not just add predicates, we rather dynamically replace some
+  predicates that can not be used to access tables in the investigated
+  plan for those, obtained by substitution of some fields for equal fields,
+  that can be used.
