Gengliang Wang updated SPARK-28512:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
In popular DBMS like MySQL/PostgreSQL/Oracle, runtime exceptions are thrown on 
casting, e.g. cast('abc' as boolean) 
While in Spark, the result is converted as null silently. It is by design since 
we don't want a long-running job aborted by some casting failure. But there are 
scenarios that users want to make sure all the data conversion are correct, 
like the way they use MySQL/PostgreSQL/Oracle.

This one has a bigger scope than 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-28741
