Github user holdenk commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/9709#issuecomment-157626540 So if I understand the change correctly this will treat null values the same as the string "null" yes? If we do this we should document that behavior (it seems like a reasonable approach provided this is the standard but maybe add a comment so people aren't caught by surprise)? It might also make sense to have this be configurable (as per @jkbradley's comments in the JIRA).
