    On the other hand, I guess there aren't really any useful methods to call 
on `ManagedBuffer` besides `createInputStream()` and `release()`.  If we have a 
method that returns `ManagedBuffer`, then that sort of implicitly takes the 
ManagedBuffer interface and makes it subject to this method's API stability 
guarantees (which there aren't any yet because this is `private[spark]`...).
    
    What if we returned an `InputStream` that was wrapped such that calling 
`close()` on it would release the underlying buffer?  This avoids exposing 
ManagedBuffer to the higher-level code and makes cleanup easier to reason 
about.  If we take this approach, it might be good to add a comment somewhere 
to mention that the caller should ensure that the input stream is eventually 
closed.
