 Review comment:
   >  We don't want to require callers to think about what missing values 
should be
   
   The caller is Spark, that's why I think it doesn't matter.
   
   The drawback of putting default value here is: we need to add several 
overloads. There are 3 `addColumn` methods here. We may need more overloads if 
we decide to add column properties.
