> Currently, the driver's executorId is set to {{<driver>}}.  This choice of ID 
> was present in older Spark versions, but it has started to cause problems now 
> that executorIds are used in more contexts, such as Ganglia metric names or 
> driver thread-dump links the web UI.  The angle brackets must be escaped when 
> embedding this ID in XML or as part of URLs and this has led to multiple 
> problems:
> - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-6484
> - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4313
> The simplest solution seems to be to change this id to something that does 
> not contain any special characters, such as {{driver}}. 
> I'm not sure whether we can perform this change in a patch release, since 
> this ID may be considered a stable API by metrics users, but it's probably 
> okay to do this in a major release as long as we document it in the release 
> notes.
