@srowen - If I understand your question, you're asking why we can't take
our application, written for an RDD, and just put the whole thing inside a call
to dstream.foreachRDD... I'm not ignoring it, I'm trying to figure out what
would happen if we did that, and that might take a bit.
Regarding your answer to @harishreedharan, I would say, of course we don't
have to - but we really should have from the start. To have two nearly, but
not quite, identical APIs is confusing, and encourages inconsistency; having a
common interface enforces that the methods in both mean the same thing now,
change together in the future, and are consistent.
