   Hi, @dongjoon-hyun Thanks for reply. Yes, I use this API sometimes as well. 
Passing schema as DDL string is one-liner but would require to define case 
class for Dataset creation anyways. So, creating dataset would require to 
define schema as both DDL string and case class. for instance, 
   ```
   case class A(id: Int, name: String, subject: String, marks: Int, result: 
Boolean)
   val df = spark.read.schema("id int, name string, subject string, marks int, 
result boolean").load("/tmp/csv")
   val ds = df.as[A]
   ```
   Above change would need to define schema just once with Product class and 
dataset/dataframes can be created easily.
   Furthermore, this API is in line with all other similar APIs of creating 
dataset/dataframe.
