    Thanks for taking look everyone. The original motivation for this PR comes 
[HIVE-13517](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13517). It was said to 
be useful for debugging HoS applications that run on YARN. I personally can't 
point to a specific example where knowing the thread-id has helped debugging 
Spark applications. The HIVE JIRA mentions that the logs from different threads 
get mixed, which makes it difficult to debug. The idea is that adding the 
thread-id to the logs will help other Spark applications too, but if thats not 
the case then I think we can close this. I've tagged some HoS experts in 
SPARK-20161 to see if they can provide more details.
    
    As Marcelo said, there is still a workaround on the Hive side for this 
issue, a custom log4j.properties file can always be provided.
