Mike Dusenberry commented on SPARK-7969:
----------------------------------------

Olivier,
I submitted a solution for the underlying Scala API that contains a `drop` 
function that accepts a `Column` reference.  It basically iterates through the 
`DataFrame` and looks for a column that has an expression that is equivalent to 
that of the `Column` argument passed in.

Definitely interested in any thoughts you may have on it.

> Drop method on Dataframes should handle Column

>          Components: PySpark, SQL
>    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
>            Reporter: Olivier Girardot
>            Priority: Minor

> For now the drop method available on Dataframe since Spark 1.4.0 only accepts 
> a column name (as a string), it should also accept a Column as input.
