    Description

      https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-19611 fixes a regression from 2.0 where Spark silently fails to read case-sensitive fields missing a case-sensitive schema in the table properties. The fix is to detect this situation, infer the schema, and write the case-sensitive schema into the metastore.

      However this can incur an unexpected performance hit the first time such a problematic table is queried (and there is a high false-positive rate here since most tables don't actually have case-sensitive fields).
