Robert Kanter commented on OOZIE-1231:
--------------------------------------

Won't option 2 possibly break user code or other clients (i.e. not the Oozie 
CLI client) that use the API to get the consoleURL or externalID?  They'll be 
expecting a single value but will instead get two values separated by 
something.  

I'd say that the "most correct" solution to this is that the 
consoleURL/externalID should have the launcher job (to be consistent with the 
other action types) and the MR job should be listed somewhere else 
(external_child_ids?).  And I'd argue that the MR action having behavior 
inconsistent with the other actions is more confusing.  

Would it make sense to have the consoleURL/externalID be the launcher job and 
put the MR job in external_child_ids?  I know that's changing the existing 
behavior for the MR action, but if we do it for 4.0, maybe that's okay (plus, 
it would be consistent with the other actions)?
