There are two things at work here:
1.) We are upcasting to GenomicRDD after a join, which does not have any save functionality attached.
2.) GenericGenomicRDD extends GenomicRDD, but does not have any save functionality attached.

I think it would be ok to create a GenomicRDD that is specific to the result joins and other set operations, mimicking the PairRDDFunctions in Spark. I don't see it as a problem for the user to be exposed to a GenomicPairRDD or something like that.

What type should a join return? How should we handle subsequent joins on a joined GenomicRDD?
