Apache Spark reassigned SPARK-21247:

> Spark supports case-sensitivity in columns. Especially, for Struct types, with case sensitive option, the following is supported.
> {code}
> scala> sql("select named_struct('a', 1, 'A', 2).a").show
> +--------------------------+
> |named_struct(a, 1, A, 2).a|
> +--------------------------+
> |                         1|
> +--------------------------+
> scala> sql("select named_struct('a', 1, 'A', 2).A").show
> +--------------------------+
> |named_struct(a, 1, A, 2).A|
> +--------------------------+
> |                         2|
> +--------------------------+
> {code}
> And vice versa, with case sensitive `false`, the following is supported.
> {code}
> scala> sql("select named_struct('a', 1).A, named_struct('A', 1).a").show
> +--------------------+--------------------+
> |named_struct(a, 1).A|named_struct(A, 1).a|
> +--------------------+--------------------+
> |                   1|                   1|
> +--------------------+--------------------+
> {code}
> This issue aims to support case-insensitive type comparisions in Set operation. Currently, SET operations fail due to case-sensitive type comparision failure .
> {code}
> scala> sql("SELECT struct(1 a) UNION ALL (SELECT struct(2 A))").show
> org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException: Union can only be performed on tables with the compatible column types. struct<A:int> <> struct<a:int> at the first column of the second table;;
> 'Union
> :- Project [named_struct(a, 1) AS named_struct(a, 1 AS `a`)#2]
> :  +- OneRowRelation$
> +- Project [named_struct(A, 2) AS named_struct(A, 2 AS `A`)#3]
>    +- OneRowRelation$
> {code}
> Please note that this issue does not aim to change all type comparison semantics.
