      Description

      So I was trying to use the new "dynamic" async table_sql in my own project MDL-67748.

      Regardless all the other points mentioned elsewhere related to violating the current naming guidelines for external functions (which I am going to ignore here), I spent a while trying to understand what I need to to make use of this new mechanism.

      At the end of the day (almost literally), I found that it cannot actually work because the current implementation of core_table\external\dynamic::execute() has hard-coded usage of core_user\table\participants_filterset():

      https://github.com/moodle/moodle/blob/788dfb9c7dad27824ee524de5c1cb9e43b31b98a/lib/table/classes/external/dynamic/fetch.php#L176

      So it cannot be used with my own table and my own filterset. I am not sure if this is forgotten relic of a development or what. Also, I can't at the moment imagine what is your plan on how the filterset will be instantiated here.
