    I like this! I didn't try building it, but the logic is great!
    
    So, to sum up the idea - the key detail here is that the checkpoint 
contains the metadata to regenerate the RDDs, thus original order and batches 
are recovered. That looks good - it was the same thing I was trying to see if 
we could do in the Kafka receiver, but it would be difficult without some API 
changes.
    
    That brings me to a question - so in this PR, is the data pulled down from 
Kafka only once every batch interval - say every 2 seconds, or is there a way 
to generate it continuously rather than have spikes?
