    I am thinking about how we can avoid getting `java.lang.ClassCastException` 
when passing incorrect `Param` types through to Scala. Is there any reason we 
cannot make `expectedType` a required argument? Then we set it if the type 
equals expected type, and try to convert it if not. If it cannot be converted 
then we raise an exception. It would be nice to avoid users getting somewhat 
cryptic, non-intuitive py4j errors. Thoughts?
