Well, it should work like this: once the parser decides that a query looks good, it seaches for the catalogue to find out all the names of implied relations. Therefore, the binding you mention should happen as late as possible. However, I'm not sure if there a kind of caching mechanism that can invalidate such sentence. Someone with more experience can detail better.
