Hari Shreedharan commented on FLUME-1479:
-----------------------------------------

What exactly is trying to be accomplished here? Multiple sinks can talk to the 
same channel. That is a part of the design. I don't see anything wrong in that. 

Also we cannot make changes to any existing behavior which are backward 
incompatible in any minor or point releases (such changes can be made only 
between 1.x -> 2.x releases). If a config which worked with a previous release 
does not work anymore, that is essentially backward incompatibility.

> If we has one Channel (mc) and two Sinks (hsa, hsb), then they may be

> agent.sinks.hsa.channel = mc
> agent.sinks.hsb.channel = mc
