Github user ScrapCodes commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/incubator-spark/pull/539#issuecomment-35352183 Yes, we can remove those "of" methods, but we would still need to wrap the lambdas. Since closure cleaner won't work with out that. So as an alternative we can have private[spark] implicits defs listed in a single place which would do it seamlessly. Even in case we decide to keep those "of" methods there is no need for them to be exposed to user. So will it be okay to do it implicitly ?
