> The logic for handling {{--flinkMaster}} seems not particularly user-friendly.

> {code}
>     if (masterUrl.equals("[local]")) {
>     } else if (masterUrl.equals("[collection]")) {
>     } else if (masterUrl.equals("[auto]")) {
>     } else if (masterUrl.matches(".*:\\d*")) {
>     } else {
>       // use auto.
>     }
> {code}
> The options are constructed with "auto" set as default.
> I think we should do the following:
> * I assume there's a default port for the Flink master. We should default to it.
> * We should treat a string without a colon as a host name. (Not default to local execution.)
> This is super easy fix, hopefully someone can pick it up quickly ;-)
