------------------------------------
Can you comment on why we don't want the API to be public? Seems like that's
very limiting...

> The JobTracker Instrumentation API is currently sending JobTracker
> configuration to submitJob(conf, JobID) call. Instead, this should be
> changed to submitJob(job.getJobConf(), JobID) to obtain job related
> configuration. i.e., Chukwa could use this API to find out the job history
> file location. In addition, the API should be public for general public to
> implement useful utilities to interface with this API.
