Shivaram Venkataraman commented on SPARK-12148:
-----------------------------------------------

Hmm thats unfortunate but I think we want to keep the DataFrame name in SparkR 
to match the class names in Scala [1] and Python [2]. Couldn't users can always 
prefix their calls with SparkR:: or S4Vectors:: or does this cause some other 
problems at package load time ?

> The SparkR package represents a Spark DataFrame with the class "DataFrame". 
> That conflicts with the more general DataFrame class defined in the S4Vectors 
> package. Would it not be more appropriate to use the name "SparkDataFrame" 
> instead?
