Github user HyukjinKwon commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/14582 We could ask it to mailing-list if you strongly feel about this. For example, `from_json` function was also asked too to mailing list before getting merged. I think we should not add all the variants just for consistency and this is why I asked more interests. There are many variants for language-specific and application-specific and I usually stay against if there is an easy workaround and looks a kind of variant. I wouldn't stay against if there are more demands or interests for this.
