**Feedback w/o code review**
I like the idea very much. +1 for the general thing. Exporting it to the
web interface is great. Thanks for this. :-)
The Hadoop compatibility idea is also very nice. Let's make sure to follow
up with it soon (file a JIRA etc.)
Regarding adding this to all tests: I think we should discuss this. I am
undecided. On the one hand, it will break everything that shows how to run the
examples, because you will have to specify the parameter names now. On the
other hand, I like that people will be exposed to the utility. I think I'm
leaning towards option 2 atm.
What's currently missing is documentation.

In the word count example: is the only point of setting the user config in
the execution config only to show the values in the web interface?

> Hadoop users are used to setting job configuration through "-D" on the
> command line.
> Right now, Flink users have to manually parse command line arguments and pass
> them to the methods.
> It would be nice to provide a standard args parser with is taking care of
> such stuff.
