> There are use cases when content in CSV format is dumped into an external 
> storage as one of columns. For example, CSV records are stored together with 
> other meta-info to Kafka. Current Spark API doesn't allow to parse such 
> columns directly. The existing method 
> [csv()|https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/e754887182304ad0d622754e33192ebcdd515965/sql/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/DataFrameReader.scala#L487]
>  requires a dataset with one string column. The API is inconvenient in 
> parsing CSV column in dataset with many columns. The ticket aims to add new 
> function similar to
