Mutiple spark contexts

A while ago, I remember reading that multiple active Spark contexts
per JVM was a possible future enhancement.
I was wondering if this is still on the roadmap, what the major
obstacles are and if I can be of any help in adding this feature?

There are no major obstacles, just a million tiny obstacles that would take
forever to fix.

There is a lengthy discussion about this on the JIRA:

Just out of curiousity. What is the use case for having multiple active
contexts in a single JVM?

There is a property you need to set which is
spark.driver.allowMultipleContexts=true
