    how about we add a new SQL command to refresh the table schema in metastore 
by inferring schema with data files? This is a compatibility issue and we 
should have provided a way for users to migrate, before the 2.1 release. I 
think this approach is much simpler than adding a flag.
    
    For tables created by hive, as hive is a case-insensitive system, will the 
parquet files have mixed-case schema?
