> Currently, the RM itself manages the AM by allocating a container for it and 
> negotiating the launch on the NodeManager and manages the AM lifecycle. 
> Thereafter, the AM negotiates resources with the RM and launches tasks to do 
> the real work.
> It would be a useful improvement to enhance this model by allowing the AM to 
> be launched independently by the client without requiring the RM. These AM's 
> would be launched on a gateway machine that can talk to the cluster. This 
> would open up new use cases such as the following
> 1) Easy debugging of AM, specially during initial development. Having the AM 
> launched on an arbitrary cluster node makes it hard to looks at logs or 
> attach a debugger to the AM. If it can be launched locally then these tasks 
> would be easier.
> 2) Running AM's that need special privileges that may not be available on 
> machines managed by the NodeManager
