Description

Inspired by https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/60

Mesos has two features that would be nice for Spark to take advantage of:

1. Roles – a way to specify ACLs and priorities for users
2. Checkpoints – a way to restart a failed Mesos slave without losing all the work that was happening on the box

Some of these may require a Mesos upgrade past our current 0.18.1
