> Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) currently operates only on vectors of word counts.  It should also supporting training and prediction using text (Strings).
> This plan is sketched in the [original LDA design doc|https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kSsDqTeZMEB94Bs4GTd0mvdAmduvZSSkpoSfn-seAzo/edit?usp=sharing].
> There should be:
> * runWithText() method which takes an RDD with a collection of Strings (bags of words).  This will also index terms and compute a dictionary.
> * dictionary parameter for when LDA is run with word count vectors
> * prediction/feedback methods returning Strings (such as describeTopicsAsStrings, which is commented out in LDA currently)
