    Yes. I agree with you. I think the List[Class[_]] will make users easier to 
parse.

> In many of our use cases. We have to decide the schema of a UDTF at the run 
> time. For example. udtf('c1, c2, c3') will generate three columns for a 
> lateral view. 
> Most systems such as calcite and hive support this feature. However, the 
> current implementation of flink didn't implement the feature correctly.
