    Sure, I hope it's good news, that the theory and promise matches reality -- 
that you can do just about anything you can do in Streaming by manipulating an 
RDD and that manipulating an RDD is the same no matter whether you're in 
streaming or not.
    
    I think @tdas would also agree it should have been consistent -- seems like 
just a little oversight -- and maybe `DStream` didn't need this similar API at 
all. I agree with that. What can or should be done going forward is a different 
question. I tend to not use the `DStream` methods at all where I can manipulate 
an `RDD`, myself, so it doesn't create much of an issue in practice from my POV.
