I've been going around in circles a bit due to lack of rules for handling self-joins and also
multi-row queries.

Does the below make sense and seem reasonable without being too restrictive?

/**
  * a table in a query:
  *   must have at least one row. Each row is TYPE_INSERT, TYPE_DELETE, TYPE_DISPLAY, TYPE_UPDATE
or TYPE_NONE
  *   has zero or more rows of TYPE_NONE
  *   has zero or more rows of one only type other than TYPE_NONE
  *   containing TYPE_NONE and another type is a self-join
  * within a table:
  *   rows of same type must have join links in the same columns
  *   TYPE_DISPLAY rows must have checks in the same columns
  *   TYPE_INSERT and TYPE_UPDATE rows must use the same destination columns
  */
