inplace option for series.reindex()

[jgerlach93]

is there a specific reason why this convenient option doesnt exist?

Generally, we're moving away from inplace operations. It's confusing whether inplace means no copy or not. Reindex, by definition, can't be inplace unless the index is the same.

We recommend chaining your method calls, and hope to provide better memory control in the future.
