> The best way to convert RDD[Map[String, Any]] to SchemaRDD currently seems to be converting each Map to JSON String first and use JsonRDD.inferSchema on it.
> It's very inefficient.
> Instead of JsonRDD, RDD[Map[String, Any]] is a better common denominator for Schemaless data as adding Map like interface to any serialization format is easy.
> So please add inferSchema support to RDD[Map[String, Any]]. *Then for any new serialization format we want to support, we just need to add a Map interface wrapper to it*
