Description:
If I use a column name in a WHERE clause in a SELECT in a CREATE VIEW, and the column 
does not exist, I expect an error message. Usually I get one. But I don't get one for quantified 
comparisons ( SOME|ALL|ANY). If I do the SELECT without CREATE VIEW, I get: 
ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 'no_such_column' in 'scalar IN/ALL/ANY subquery' 
Incidentally, I think a better error message would be: 
ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 'no_such_column' with 'IN/ALL/ANY subquery' 
 
 
 
 
 
 

How to repeat:
/* after "create table t (column1 int)" */ 
 
mysql> create view vkj as select * from t where no_such_column = any (select 1); 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) 
 
mysql> create view vkj as select * from t where no_such_column = (select 1); 
ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 'no_such_column' in 'where clause' 
 
mysql> select * from t where no_such_column = any (select 1); 
ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 'no_such_column' in 'scalar IN/ALL/ANY subquery'
