> The method dataframe.unpersist() has an option blocking, which allows for 
> eager unpersisting of a dataframe. On the other side the method 
> dataframe.cache() and dataframe.persist() don't have a comparable option. A 
> (undocumented) workaround for this is to call dataframe.count() directly 
> after cache() or persist(). But for API consistency and convenience it would 
> make sense to give cache() and persist() also the option blocking.
