------------------------------------

             Summary: Consider exporting in R read.table
                 Key: SPARK-12232
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12232
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: SparkR
    Affects Versions: 1.5.2
            Reporter: Felix Cheung
            Priority: Minor


Since we have read.df, read.json, read.parquet (some in pending PRs), we have 
table() and we should consider having read.table() for consistency and 
R-likeness.

However, this conflicts with utils::read.table which returns a R data.frame.
It seems neither table() or read.table() is desirable in this case.
