Agree, I was not suggesting that this specific change per-se makes it into
core.
Just that there are a lot of applications for all-reduce support in spark :
and if it were available out of the box, it will make porting a lot of algos
quite trivial !
And in that context, all reduce support should go into core.
If we feel that this specific PR is not what we want due to
limitations/design choices, that is fine by me.
