    I don't have a strong opinion on this, but this could be done with 
`require`. Generates a different exception -- `IllegalArgumentException`, but a 
lower-level generic exception seems pretty reasonable.
    
    Can I suggest tightening the text to something like "Transform function may 
not return null. Return RDD.empty to return no elements as the result of the 
transformation."
