    The issue I have with `invert(inputCol, outputCol)` is that it is hard for 
me to tell what this method does from its signature. At a first glance, I 
thought this is to swap `inputCol` and `outputCol`.
    
    ~~~scala
    val idxToStr = indexer.inverse
      .setInputCol("prediction")
      .setOutputCol("predictedLabels")
    ~~~
    
    reads better than
    
    ~~~scala
    val idxToStr = indexer.invert("prediction", "predictedLabels")
    ~~~
    
    though the latter requires less typing.
