Olga Natkovich resolved PIG-322.
--------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

It is not possible for users to know (especially with multiquery) where the job 
boundaries will be. Allowing this functionality would be more confusing than 
helpful. 

> Same job name used for a series of map-reduce jobs

>            Priority: Minor
>
> The only job name used for a series of map-reduce jobs is the one before 
> STORE, even if SET job.name is used multiple number of times. Though it is 
> known that there exists no direct mapping between (a set of) pig statements 
> and the map-reduce jobs, and Pig tries to optimize the number of map-reduce 
> jobs, having the ability to have different names for the map-reduce jobs 
> triggered by Pig is a useful feature that allows better tracking.
> If no job.name is SET, may be Pig can tag along a count in the name, instead 
> of the default "PigLatin:DefaultJobName"
> The issue of associating a name explicitly SET by the user with a map-reduce 
> job can be more tricky though when the name is set multiple times.
