> It would be nice to be able to make a table in a JDBC database appear as a 
> table in Spark SQL.  This would let users, for instance, perform a JOIN 
> between a DataFrame in Spark SQL with a table in a Postgres database.
> It might also be nice to be able to go the other direction -- save a 
> DataFrame to a database -- for instance in an ETL job.
> Edited to clarify:  Both of these tasks are certainly possible to accomplish 
> at the moment with a little bit of ad-hoc glue code.  However, there is no 
> fundamental reason why the user should need to supply the table schema and 
> some code for pulling data out of a ResultSet row into a Catalyst Row 
> structure when this information can be derived from the schema of the 
> database table itself.
