    The idea sounds very good. The `lib` folder should not pack the Hadoop 
classes into the same uberjar as Flink, but have separate fat jars for Flink 
and the Hadoop dependency.
    
    Should be doable by changing the uberjar packaging in the `flink-dist` 
project...

> My topology list some files on hdfs using webhdfs API. 
> org.mortbay.util.ajax.JSON was included in the application uber jar. I 
> noticed that flink loads the application jar in a child classloader. This is 
> what most likely happened - 
> 1. WebHdfsFileSystem class was loaded through parent class loader since it is 
> included in flink-dist.jar.
> 2. WebHdfsFileSystem has reference to the org.mortbay.util.ajax.JSON but 
> since it is loaded through parent class loader, WebHdfsFileSystem can't read 
> a class in child class loader. 
> Ideally all the referenced classes should be available in the distribution 
> jar so that these sort of issues may not occur.
