Description

Let me first say, I'm not verifying this "bug" report with a testcase. I'm simply assuming it exists since it exists in the original RI 'jbatch' code.

This issue is described here:
https://java.net/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5164

Not sure how critical this is; the usecase provoking the original report was based on a misunderstanding.

But the root cause stems from the RI's use of an internal-only execution id in internally handling both types of parallel work: splits and partitions. There's no spec justification for surfacing these as first-class execution/instance ids, however.
