Currently we use Tables.allocatecolumn as it is safe. E.g. currently we have an issue with PooledArrays.jl https://github.com/JuliaData/PooledArrays.jl/issues/88 which current design handles correctly.

Probably it would be better to improve over Tables.allocatecolumn (which looks only at element type and disregards container type)
