    Tell me if this SamplePathFilter has already been discussed; I may have 
missed it in the many comments above.  I'm worried about it being 
deterministic, but I'm also not that familiar with the Hadoop APIs being used 
here.
    * If the DataFrame is reloaded (recomputed), or if a task fails and that 
partition is recomputed, then will random.nextDouble() really produce the same 
results?
    * I'd expect we'd need to set a seed, as @thunterdb suggested.  I'm fine 
with a fixed seed, though it'd be nice to have it configurable in the future.
    * Even if we set a seed, then is random.nextDouble computed in a fixed 
order over each partition?
    
    We've run into a lot of issues in both RDD and DataFrame sampling methods 
with non-deterministic results, so I want to be careful here.
