Shove `display` in builtins ?

See original GitHub issue

Discussed with @rgbkrk and @ivanov

We believe that the low usage of display and of the rich display protocol is that display is too hard to found. I think that it might be time to inject it into builtins as this will make it available; and will still allow any locally defined display function to overwrite it.

The drawback is that it will make exporting the notebook to a python script potentially invalid.

cc @fperez on this.

The primary motivation for this is that a lot of spark documentation and other notebooks assume a global display function for displaying and manipulating data frames. It also tends to be very user focused.

Our current IPython.display.display docstring is better for us as developers than users. If we expose a display function, we should make sure that display? has more of a data scientist user focus, even if it defers to IPython.display.display. 😄

You’re wanting to expose IPython.display.display as the global then? I can open a separate issue if the global exposed is IPython.display.display as display.
