----------------------------------------------------------------

Right, possibly with SQLContext/HiveContext as wrapper of SparkSession.

If we are to implement SparkSession in R, its builder syntax might not be 
natural to replicate. I think we should implement only a small subset of 
functions and build from there.

And perhaps to implement SparkSession as a S4 class for better type checking 
enforcement - we might also need to do that for function-signature backward 
compatibility with functions that takes sqlContext.

It sounds like a lot of work.
