I'm not sure the CRAN people would be okay with that. It might be enough to 
pass any automatic testing they have but it would still be against their 
policies.

> - Packages should not write in the users’ home filespace, nor anywhere else 
> on the file system apart from the R session’s temporary directory (or during 
> installation in the location pointed to by TMPDIR: and such usage should be 
> cleaned up). Installing into the system’s R installation (e.g., scripts to 
> its bin directory) is not allowed.
> Limited exceptions may be allowed in interactive sessions if the package 
> obtains confirmation from the user.
> - Packages should not modify the global environment (user’s workspace).

> Currently "spark-warehouse" gets created in the working directory when
