I like this change because the current restart behavior is not flexible
enough. Resolving this issue should be really easy with your change in:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3190
With this change, users will execute code in the JobManager and the'll get
direct access to the ExecutionGraph. I'm not sure if we should maybe forbid
full access to the EC by using a separate interface the strategies can operate
on?
