---------------------------------

[~Qin Yao] hi, has there been any further progress on this PR? Is it possible 
to dynamically adjust maxExecutors? :)

> Support dynamic executor range for dynamic allocation

> Currently, Spark allows users to set scalability within a Spark application 
> using dynamic allocation. spark.dynamicAllocation.minExecutors & 
> spark.dynamicAllocation.maxExecutors are used for scaling up and down. Within 
> an application,Spark tactfully use them to request executors from cluster 
> manager according to the real-time workload. Once set, the range is fixed 
> through the whole application lifecycle. This is not very convenient for 
> long-running application when the range should be changeable for some cases, 
> such as:
> 1. the cluster manager itself or the queue will scale up and down, which 
> looks very likely to happen in modern cloud platforms
> 2. the application is long-running, but the timeliness, priority, e.t.c are 
> not only determined by the workload with the application, but also by the 
> traffic across the cluster manager or just different moments
> 3. e.t.c.
