holdenk commented on SPARK-2868:
--------------------------------

This might be a difficult issue to start of with [~heathkh] - the accumulator 
API has been changed a lot on the backend and the Python API is still exposing 
the old API. If your interested I might start by picking a smaller PySpark 
related issue and then coming back to this. I'd be happy to chat with you 
though about what the work involved might look like for this issue.

> SPARK-2380 added this for Java/Scala. To allow this in Python we'll need to 
> make some additional changes. One potential path is to have a 1:1 
> correspondence with Scala accumulators (instead of a one-to-many). A 
> challenge is exposing the stringified values of the accumulators to the Scala 
> code.
