    @davies, I don't understand your two cases. SparkR is actually a standalone 
spark application in R, the JVM backend is dedicated, won't share with other 
applications.
    
    SparkR is not a thrift client to an SparkSQL service,  it won't be a 
session of an SparkSQL thrift service,  so it makes no sense to add a flag 
about session into sparkR.init.
    
    SparkR itself won't try to provide multi-session support (as SparkSQL 
thrift server does), because R is a single-threaded environment.
    
    so my point is that a single root SQLContext is what we want.
