> Support a mechanism to translate a Criteria Query instance into a String.
> The string syntax should be *almost* JPQL but not exactly. Because some Criteria Query expressions do not have a direct JPQL representation.
> I will refer this almost JPQL-like syntax as Criteria Query Language or CQL -- which will provide ample scope of confusion being homophonic with SQL.
> From a technical perspectives, conversion to a string format should address the following
> 1. the string should look more like JPQL than a mere translation of internal expressions (say BETWEEN in two EQUAL nodes ANDed together internally)
> 2. the criteria query may be incomplete. This will be useful for the IDE tools to display the string as an user constructs the query.
