    @cloud-fan Based on my understanding, runtime conf (`class RuntimeConfig`) 
is designed as the public/external interface for users to access the internal 
conf. If users want to make a change on Config at runtime, they must use 
`RuntimeConfig`. In the future, we can further enhance it to block external 
users to change the internal conf?  Also easier to manage Hadoop configuration 
in `RuntimeConfig`? 
    
    `SQLConf` will be just an internal implementation of configuration. We do 
not expect external users to directly access it.
    
    You know, this is just my understanding. : )
