> this is useful for the scenario where Kinesis Spark Streaming is being invoked from the Spark Shell.  in this case, the application name in the SparkContext is pre-set to "Spark Shell".
> this isn't a common or recommended use case, but it's best to make this configurable outside of SparkContext.
