> This concept is used by Bigtable and Dataflow service to specify what version of the SDK is being used and is currently available through ReleaseInfo as a static property.
> The Dataflow distribution attempts to override this but is unable to propagate this user agent to dependent modules cleanly. Having dependent modules get the user agent from a PipelineOption would make it possible for a runner to modify the user agent during execution to be able to identify its flavor.
> It seems likely that Flink/Spark/... would like to modify the user agent as well for the same purpose.
