You are dismissing a valid question and incidentally this is the question that exposes a problem of the graphql-js implementation (specifically the execution module) when the data source is a database (which 90% of the time it is), though it's not a problem of the GraphQL . Of course he can not "well-forme" it since he is just looking into GraphQL. What he is looking for actually is this https://github.com/stems/join-monster https://github.com/stems/join-monster but it's not without it's problems. PS: My comment does not mean the reference implementation is bad, it's just that it's a reference and good in a lot of cases but not in all. It does not mean you have to use every part of it, you can write your own execution module.
