@pwendell Would like to add another (not so sound) reason for a user to
link against the Thrift server is the `HiveThriftServer2.startWithContext`
method. Users can use this to serve tables created from plain RDDs via JDBC.
However this feature is quite experimental and doesn't play well with other
parts, for example, `SHOW TABLE` doesn't show those RDD tables.
