    Since we already have an option for being compatible with Hive (the legacy 
mode), then we should not worry that (do not need to change anything in this 
PR).
    
    Hive 1.2 and Spark 1.4 will exists for a long time, If we plan to be 
compatible with them out of box (without any configurations), then we can't 
move forward.
    
    Parquet format 2 will have the same issue (compatibility).
