I had a parallel effort which arrived at most of the same conclusions
before discovering this JIRA.
There is a bug with activate/deactivate where the spout continues to call
nextTuple() but never emits new messages. I'm not sure if it is scoped to the
manual partition work or is a general bug. Would you consider a fix here for
that or a new JIRA?
