    Another subtlety: when the web UI receives a request for a thread-dump, it 
would need to issue a RPC to the executor to fetch that request.  Ideally, we 
wouldn't block the UI server thread in order to prevent a slow driver -> 
executor round trip from leading to a huge buildup of waiting threads and 
causing starvation / dropped requests.
