Is Spark's JSON schema inference too inflexible for your liking?

Common Scenarios:

• Automatic schema inference from Spark is not applying your desired type casting
• You want to completely drop irrelevant fields when parsing
• You want to avoid some highly nested fields simply by casting some outer fields as strings

Step 1: Provide your (ideal) JSON data example

  "firstName": "Will",
