+/**
+ * A plugin which can be automaticaly instantiated within each Spark
executor. Users can specify
+ * plugins which should be created with the "spark.executor.plugins"
configuration. An instance
+ * of each plugin will be created for every executor, including those
created by dynamic allocation,
+ * before the executor starts running any tasks.
+ *
+ * The specific api exposed to the end users still considered to be very
unstable. If implementors
+ * extend this base class, we will *hopefully* be able to keep
compatability by providing dummy
+ * implementations for any methods added, but make no guarantees this will
always be possible across
+ * all spark releases.
+ *
+ * Spark does nothing to verify the plugin is doing legitimate things, or
to manage the resources
+ * it uses. A plugin acquires the same privileges as the user running the
task. A bad plugin
+ * could also intefere with task execution and make the executor fail in
unexpected ways.

yes, all good points, I forgot about default methods in interfaces. (and
also, yes I even forgot `abstract` even in this version.)
