Davies Liu commented on SPARK-15441:
------------------------------------

How to we represent a null in Dataset? If it's a row with all columns are 
nulls, then we could transform a row with all columns are nulls into null, 
right? In this case, the left side of the fourth row are nulls, it could be 
null.

> dataset outer join seems to return incorrect result
