> The current implementation for exact stratified sampling (sampleByKeyExact) could be more efficient.  Proposed algorithm sketch:
> * Sampling is done separately for each stratum.  Here, all counts are w.r.t. a fixed stratum.
> * Let n_partition = number of elements in a given partition
> * This method uses 2-tiered sampling:
> ** Tier 1 (on driver): Select the sample sizes {n_partition} for each partition.
> *** Without replacement, this uses a multivariate hypergeometric distribution.
> *** With replacement, this should use a multinomial distribution.
> ** Tier 2 (in parallel): Select a sample of size n_partition.
> If anyone is interested in implementing this, I have a rough draft which works without replacement, but it needs to be cleaned up and augmented to do sampling with replacement too.
