Xiangrui Meng commented on SPARK-15947:
---------------------------------------

Had an offline discussion with [~josephkb]. There would be lot of work to 
implement this feature and tests. A simpler choice is to ask users to manually 
convert the DataFrames at the beginning of the pipeline with tools implemented 
in SPARK-15945. Then we can update migration guide to include the error message 
and put this workaround there. So users can search on Google and find the 
solution.

I'm closing this ticket.

> After SPARK-15945, we should make ALL pipeline components accept old vector 
> columns as input and do the conversion automatically (probably with a warning 
> message), in order to smooth the migration to 2.0. 
> --Note that this includes loading old saved models.-- SPARK-16000 handles 
> backward compatibility in model loading.
