Shivaram Venkataraman commented on SPARK-9230:
----------------------------------------------

[~ekhliang] [~mengxr] One more thing that would be good to do is to make these 
formulas also work with actual columns in R. For example in DataFrames we parse 
columns with df$col_name. So it will be great to support a formula of the kind 
df$Sepal_Length ~ df$Sepal_Width

> SparkR RFormula should support StringType features
