--------------------------------------------------------------

It seems really strange to add support for this specific case, when it is 
doable via UDF. I'm going to close this as won't fix for now until we hear a 
stronger argument for it.

On a related topic, I think it'd be useful to have general support for 
array_exists that takes in a function as input, but that would require higher 
order functions in SQL!

> To add support for pattern matching in ArrayContains Expression.
> Array Contains currently only matches the exact value as of now... there 
> should be support for pattern matching as well. 
> For eg. arrayContains(Seq("\\d*", "\\s*"), "100") returns true.
