[~rxin] Sounds good :). Where would you suggest adding a test for StructType
creation? Not sure where it quite fits in the grand scheme of things.
With regards to also supporting a string for simple types, I think it's safer
to enforce usage of DataType since the SQL schema should be strictly typed.
Were you suggesting that we allow passing "int" or "long" as the type argument
or for us to infer it automatically by parsing the string? That approach seems
a little more dangerous.
