Is your feature request related to a problem?

Sometimes people just mistype a column name.

Desired solution

  • We should see whether a column with a similar name exists in the current Table and include this in the error message ("did you mean XY"). To compute similarity of column names, use levenshtein.

If a column with the given name has existed in the past (#328), we should show that instead of looking for columns with similar names.
