    Clarification question: we're not trying to change behavior for 
user-defined accumulators, right? If I have a user-defined accumulator and my 
task fails, then the executor itself will avoid updates to the user 
accumulators by simply not sending updates for them? I guess this test is just 
checking that _if_ a failed task sends accumulator updates, then those updates 
are assumed to be ones that should be counted and are properly added? Might be 
good to add a one-sentence comment here explaining this if you also find this 
potentially confusing.
