             Summary: DataFrame.withColumn should take metadata
                 Key: SPARK-6914
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-6914
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 1.3.0
            Reporter: Joseph K. Bradley
            Priority: Minor


It would be nice if DataFrame.withColumn could take metadata.  Currently (as 
far as I can tell), the best way to specify it is:
{code}
dataset.withColumn(columnName, newCol.as(columnName, myMetadata))
{code}
where "newCol" is a new column (in my use case, a column created by a UDF).

This is weird since the columnName is specified twice.
