    @mallman @viirya from my understanding current workaround is for case when 
reading columns which are not in file schema

file's schema.
    
    Isn't it somehow dependent on schema evolution setting?

    > Since schema merging is a relatively expensive operation, and is not a 
necessity in most cases, we turned it off by default starting from 1.5.0. You 
may enable it by

files (as shown in the examples below), or
    > * setting the global SQL option spark.sql.parquet.mergeSchema to true.
    
    Wouldn't it work fine with `spark.sql.parquet.mergeSchema` enabled?
