   > @emkornfield I think you are right that implementing JDBC would get you 
these APIs (and ORMs) for free. I suppose then I'm left wondering what the goal 
is here. What does a high level dataframe API bring that JDBC does not already 
give us?
   
   @westonpace In addition to Gavin's response, I guess I'm advocating against 
calling it a dataframe precisely because it is overloaded.  In my mind this is 
simply the different between trying to load arbitrary tuples into the arrow 
format vs having a structured class you are going to load.  As an example we've 
spent a decent amount of time making it ergonomic in python to create Tables 
from python objects, I think the goal of this is something similar.
