@yhuai @marmbrus I am not sure if this has been discussed before, but what
do you guys think about adding a version of `applySchema(RDD[Array[String]],
StructType)`?
The use case I have in mind is TPC-DS data preparation. Currently I have a
bunch of text files, from which I can easily create an `RDD[String]`; by
splitting each line on some separator I get an `RDD[Array[String]]`. Now, in
TPC-DS the tables easily have 15+ columns, and I don't want to manually create
a `Row` for each `Array[String]`.
