Review Comment:
   I don't see how this will work with just `visitor_op`.
   
   The proposed function signature `fn visitor_op(&mut self, op: 
&PredicateOperator, reference: &BoundReference)` would work for a unary 
operator.
   
   A binary operator would need `fn visitor_op(&mut self, op: 
&PredicateOperator, reference: &BoundReference, literal: &Datum)`, and a set 
operator would need `fn visitor_op(&mut self, op: &PredicateOperator, 
reference: &BoundReference, literals: &FnvHashSet<Datum>)`.
   
   To resolve this, you'd need the visitor to have `fn unary_op(...)`, `fn 
binary_op(...)`, and `fn set_op(...)`.
   
   Is that what we want? 
   
   Personally I think this is another example of where the current type 
hierarchy feels awkward - there are other places where we bump into these type 
hierarchy mismatches, such as needing a default leg in a match on operator to 
handle operators that will never show up, such as binary ops in a unary 
expression.
   
   Something more like this feels better to me:
   
   ```rust
   pub enum Predicate {
       // By not having Unary / Binary / Set here, and removing
       // that layer in favour of having the ops themselves
       // as part of this enum, there is no need for code that
       // raises errors when the wrong type of `Op` is used, since those
       // issues are prevented by the type system at compile time
   
       // Unary ops now only contain one param, the term, and so can be
       // implemented more simply
       IsNull(Reference),
       // ... other Unary ops here,
   
       // Binary / Set ops ditch the `BinaryExpression`, with the literal
       // and reference being available directly
       GreaterThan {
           literal: Datum,
           reference: Reference,
       },
       // ... other Binary ops here,
       
       In {
           literals: HashSet<Datum>,
           reference: Reference,
       },
       // ... other Set ops here
   }
   ```
