Hi Yinwei, Thanks for this suggestion. From my opinion providing first 2 options ensures that user is aware about the data he is going to load and column data mapping.
For the 3rd option suggested by you I think it will be something that we are taking the decision without intimating the user and we cannot be sure that this is exactly how user wanted to load the data. So from my opinion we should let user decide this behavior.
