In the employee/manager hierarchy, currently Marie has one manager (Allen). If Marie, later has two managers (Allen and Adams), how will the solution handle this. Will the query return Marie once or twice? Should the query return her once or twice?

In your opinion, what is a descriptive (but short) name for a function that returns members/elements of a hierarchy? Any of the below?

fSelectRecursively
