Shivaram Venkataraman commented on SPARK-9325:
----------------------------------------------
Just `collect` and maybe `head`. This is just to show / preview what is in a
column and also to convert columns to local vectors / lists that can be used as
a vector. I don't think we want to support other functions on this.
> Support `collect` on DataFrame columns

> Key: SPARK-9325

> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: SparkR
> Reporter: Shivaram Venkataraman

> This is to support code of the form
> ```
> ages <- collect(df$Age)
> ```
> Right now `df$Age` returns a Column, which has no functions supported.
> Similarly we might consider supporting `head(df$Age)` etc.
