the drawbacks for us not to de-duplicate in shuffle stage is that, it makes
accumulator usage to be very tricky...
it sounds like you are not encouraged to use accumulator in a
transformation, especially when the involved stage is shared by multiple jobs
or your cluster is not that stable....
for adding flag, just provide flexibility for the user to choose whether
they would like to accept duplicate update....
