------------------------------------------
Thanks for the review, Robert! I think you meant this comment to go with the
MAPREDUCE-2489 patch though, and I will address it there. :)
> Add support for throwing UnknownHostException when a host doesn't resolve

> As part of MAPREDUCE-2489, we need support for having the resolve methods
> (for DNS mapping) throw UnknownHostExceptions. (Currently, they hide the
> exception). Since the existing 'resolve' method is ultimately used by
> several other locations/components, I propose we add a new
> 'resolveValidHosts' method.
