Hossein Falaki commented on SPARK-10903:
----------------------------------------

+1 We have seen a lot of questions from new SparkR users about the life cycle 
of the context. 
My question is: are we going to remove or deprecate sparkRSQL.init()? I suggest 
we should, because right now calling that method creates a new Java SQLContext 
object, and having two of them prevents users form viewing temp tables.

> Make sqlContext global

> Make sqlContext global so that we don't have to always specify it.
> e.g. createDataFrame(iris) instead of createDataFrame(sqlContext, iris)
