As a dumb end-user, and as the maintainer of
[Flintrock](https://github.com/nchammas/flintrock), my interest in this PR
stems from the hope that we will be able to get builds of Spark against the
latest version of Hadoop that can interact with S3 out of the box.
Because Spark builds against Hadoop 2.6 and 2.7 don't have that support,
many Flintrock users [opt to use Spark built against Hadoop
2.4](https://github.com/nchammas/flintrock/issues/88) since S3 support was
still bundled in with those versions. Many users don't know that they can get
S3 support at runtime with the right call to `--packages`.
Given that Spark and S3 are very commonly used together, I hope there is
some way we can address the out-of-the-box use case here.
