bq. From my testing on trunk, I notice that even for the case where the AM goes 
over container limits (which I trigger with 
-Dyarn.app.mapreduce.am.resource.mb=512 
-Dyarn.app.mapreduce.am.command-opts="-Xmx3500m" on a sleep job), sometimes the 
error is propagated back and sometimes its not. Can you please corroborate 
this? When State == FinalState == FAILED, the error is propagated back. However 
about half the times, State == FINISHED and FinalState == KILLED, in which case 
there is no message anywhere to help me. Not in the diagnostics, and there are 
no logs.

> I had a case where an MR AM eclipsed the configured memory limit. This caused
