    I understanding what you are saying and for frequent R users this might not 
really be a big issue, so far we are taking the view of avoiding masking any 
inconvenience, if we if at all could.
    
    Ideally, I'd prefer to eliminate any conflict with `cov`, `filter`, and 
`sample` as well.
    This is what I'm referring to re: the workaround for 
[drop](https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/R/pkg/R/DataFrame.R#L3288). 
If the signature isn't too strange or different, we should try to export a 
generic + stub that makes the base:: function still callable without a 
namespace prefix.
    
    From a quick check I think what we have for `drop` could apply to 
`grouping` as well - would you like to give it a shot?
