hi @tillrohrmann I think you should review this PR and add it to 1.5
version as a hotfix. Because I just download the release-1.5 branch. And
install it as standalone-session mode. But the general config in
`flink-conf.yaml` can not let me access the web frontend with the JM server's
remote IP(I access from remote node's browser), and I run command `netstat -anp
| grep 8081` shows :
```
tcp0 0 127.0.0.1:8081 0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN 130475/java
```
and the log print:
```
Rest endpoint listening at 127.0.0.:8081
```
and the config item : `jobmanager.web.address` can not fix this problem,
unless we add the config :
```
rest.address: 0.0.0.0
```
to override the default `localhost` value
but this config item is not in `flink-conf.yaml`, and user may be not
familiar with it.
And I think if we do not change this config's default value, it will
confuse users.
