Where I ended up was the implementation of the common parent would nearly identical to `BaseSensorOperator`. The logic being `BaseAsyncOperator` just implements a few more methods (e.g `[submit/process]_request`) and is opinionated that `mode=reschedule`. The main reasoning to subclass v.s. enhancing the existing Sensor is I wanted to use the same `execute` method but have a class nomenclature that indicates that subclasses of this are intended to take action. I think people are less likely to understand that a Sensor can take action rather than being a read-only poller. The spirit of this class is to provide an improved way for what we'd traditionally do with Operators so I wanted a class with the name Operator. Perhaps this is short sighted. I've refactored to do the submit / process in the execute method of BaseSensorOperator ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
