Many of the interpreters have a parameter named maxResults, max_no_of_rows, 
max_count, etc whose purpose is to limit the number of output rows displayed 
(for example from z.show(...)).

In most (or perhaps all) of these implementations, setting this parameter to 0 
causes no output to be displayed at all as 0 is taken literally. 

In certain other contexts, the value 0 in a configuration parameter is often 
used as a special indicator meaning "unlimited". We have at least one recent 
request for such an interpretation of the value "0" in the maximum output rows 
parameter (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZEPPELIN-3446). 

I would like to ask the user community what they think of making such a change. 
How common would such use be? are there any downsides?

Thanks for your ideas.
