dependsOnLevelValue Boolean

Should be set to true if the value of the property is functionally dependent on the level value. This permits the associated property column to be omitted from the GROUP BY clause (if the database permits columns in the SELECT that are not in the GROUP BY). This can be a significant performance enhancement on some databases, such as MySQL.
