    I don't think you're missing anything @tgravescs , it sounds like this is 
just a misconfiguration and we shouldn't be doing anything special for it 
(since it could hurt correct configurations).  I wanted to see if this was a 
particularly common / easy misconfiguration in yarn, but you both have 
convinced me its not.
    
    my point about SPARK-18886 was to think through how bad the effect from the 
misconfiguration is.  In the originally described scenario, if a few nodes are 
accidentally labelled as belonging to their own rack, then sometimes task will 
get preferentially assigned to this false-rack at first.  If tasks are long, 
its not that big a deal -- after a short delay, you'll then assign the tasks to 
the rest of the cluster.  But if tasks are short, b/c of SPARK-18886, you may 
just keep assigning to the nodes in your false-rack, and leave the rest of the 
cluster idle.
    
    Nonetheless, I think its still just a misconfiguration.  sounds like this 
issue is a "won't fix", unless @morenn520 makes the case otherwise.
