Good question.
- I don't know what the interaction between mesos agent and executor is. Is
there a health check?
- There is a reconciliation between Mesos and Frameworks: will Mesos
include the "orphan" executor in the list there, so framework can find
runaways and kill them(using Mesos provided API)?
