Patrick and I were chatting about how to handle several issues which
clearly need a fix, and are easy, but can't be implemented until a
next major release like Spark 2.x since it would change APIs.
Examples:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3266
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3369
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4819

We could simply make version 2.0.0 in JIRA. Although straightforward,
it might imply that release planning has begun for 2.0.0.

The version could be called "2+" for now to better indicate its status.

There is also a "Later" JIRA resolution. Although resolving the above
seems a little wrong, it might be reasonable if we're sure to revisit
"Later", well, at some well defined later. The three issues above risk
getting lost in the shuffle.

We also wondered whether using "Later" is good or bad. It takes items
off the radar that aren't going to be acted on anytime soon -- and
there are lots of those right now. It might send a message that these
will be revisited when they are even less likely to if resolved.

Any opinions?
