We did this to minimize the impact of these changes on people who don't care 
about roles or hierarchical allocation, but I agree that we don't always want a 
default role. Maybe the solution is to add the default role if no --role flag 
is present, and then allow people who use roles to turn on the default role by 
including a '*' in their --roles flag.

Good point. This also brings up the question of what we should do if a 
framework tries to reregister with a different role. We could check this by 
sending FrameworkInfos from the slaves to the master when they reregister, but 
that gets complicated if a framework reregisters before any slaves that it has 
tasks running on reregister, or if a framework that doesn't have any currently 
running tasks, and therefore none of the slaves have a copy of its 
FrameworkInfo, reregisters.

That's included in the 'tests' review later in this review chain.

I think that 'name' is cleaner, since it's in line with the way that Resource, 
Attribute, FrameworkInfo, ExecutorInfo, and TaskInfo all have 'name' fields.
