I'm not familiar with SparkR, so please correct me if I'm wrong. IIRC,
`showDF` is mapped to the Scala method `Dataset.show()`, which executes in the
JVM, where `NA` isn't available, and we have to use `null` as the only
reasonable alternative. You may see that the previous `head(df)` call does
print `NA` instead of `null`.
