>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Streaming
>    Affects Versions: 1.3.1, 1.4.1, 1.5.0

> The job group, job descriptions and scheduler pool information is passed 
> through thread local properties, and get inherited by child threads. In case 
> of spark streaming, the streaming jobs inherit these properties from the 
> thread that called streamingContext.start(). This may not make sense. 
> 1. Job group: This is mainly used for cancelling a group of jobs together. It 
> does not make sense to cancel streaming jobs like this, as the effect will be 
> unpredictable. And its not a valid usecase any way, to cancel a streaming 
> context, call streamingContext.stop()
> 2. Job description: This is used to pass on nice text descriptions for jobs 
> to show up in the UI. The job description of the thread that calls 
> streamingContext.start() is not useful for all the streaming jobs, as it does 
> not make sense for all of the streaming jobs to have the same description, 
> and the description may or may not be related to streaming.
