Shivaram Venkataraman commented on SPARK-9972:
----------------------------------------------

Ah that makes more sense. When we try to write a unit test for this you will 
see an error. Could we operate on the array (using say `sum` or `max` or 
something like that ?) on the Scala side and then only collect a single value ? 
BTW, longer term we will fix the collect issue, but I am just trying to see if 
we can make progress on this without being blocked on that.

> Add `struct`, `encode` and `decode` function in SparkR

> Support {{struct}} function on a DataFrame in SparkR. However, I think we
