Description: A dataframe validation framework for package builders who
        use dataframes as function parameters. It performs checks on
        column names, coerces data-types, and checks grouping to make
        sure user inputs conform to a specification provided by the
        package author. It provides a mechanism for package authors to
        automatically document supported dataframe inputs and
        selectively dispatch to functions depending on the format of a
        dataframe much like S3 does for classes. It also contains some
        developer tools to make working with and documenting dataframe
        specifications easier. It helps package developers to improve
        their documentation and simplifies parameter validation where
        dataframes are used as function parameters.
