Sean Owen commented on SPARK-17055:
-----------------------------------

Hm, I could have sworn this class let you specify the test/train splits 
directly, but I don't see it here. (Does anyone else know what I might be 
thinking of?) If not, then this seems like a quite useful bit of functionality. 
Manually specifying the split and letting it do the grid search is just what 
this case needs.

> Current CrossValidator only supports k-fold, which randomly divides all the 
> samples in k groups of samples. But in cases when data is gathered from 
> different subjects and we want to avoid over-fitting, we want to hold out 
> samples with certain labels from training data and put them into validation 
> fold, i.e. we want to ensure that the same label is not in both testing and 
> training sets.
> Mainstream packages like Sklearn already supports such cross validation 
> method.
