Also, it would be good to chance the handleJobCancellation() method to
accept a string exceptionMessage parameter to use when creating the
SparkException. For the normal case it can stay as "Job X cancelled", but for
this case we can say "Job X cancelled because stage Y was cancelled" to make it
more clear to the user what's going on.
