Stefan Müller wrote:

The example could be a non-matching free relative in which a downstairs accusative fills the role of an upstairs nominative. To exclude this, the upstairs requiement should be accusative and the downstairs one should be nominative. Example: Ich habe gegessen, was noch übrig war.
