> When creating a DataSet over a case class containing a field of type scala.Null, there is an exception thrown. As far as I can see, spark sql would support a Schema(NullType, true), but it fails inside the {{schemaFor}} function with a {{MatchError}}.
> I would expect spark to return a DataSet with a NullType for that field.

> h5. Background Info
> To handle our data in a type-safe fashion, we have generated AVRO schemas and corresponding scala case classes for our domain data. As some fields only contain null values, this results in fields with scala.Null as a type. Moving our pipeline to DataSets/structured streaming, case classes with Null types begin to give problems, even trough NullType is known to spark SQL.
