The resource is not only developers/reviewers, but also CI resources. Our CI 
matrix is already quite large, and running Spark's test suites for 3.4, 3.5. 
and 4.0 is typically the bottleneck.

The difference in Spark behavior between 3.3 and 4.0 (which we'd like to start 
treating as a primary target for Comet) is also such that maintaining that many 
shims and conditional codepaths is concerning to me.

Lastly, would you require JDK8 support or are you just asking about 3.3 with 
JDK 11+? AFAIK Comet cannot support JDK8 anymore as Arrow Java has dropped 
support for it, and we'd have to backport critical behavior and bug fixes to an 
older fork of Arrow Java, which seems like a non-starter to me.
