> {{JobQueueJobInProgressListener}} uses a {{TreeSet}} to store the sorted collection of {{JobInProgress}} objects. The comparator used to sort the JIPs follow the following order
> - priority (>=)
> - start time (<=)
> - job id [jt-identifier, job-index] (<=)
> If any JIP object is changed w.r.t priority or start-time, then the TreeSet will be inconsistent. Hence doing  a delete might not work. Consider the following
> 1) jobs are submitted in the following order 
> ||number||jobid||priority||
> |1|j1|NORMAL|
> |2|j2|LOW|
> |3|j3|NORMAL|
> 2) The sorted collection will be in the order : {{j1,j3,j2}}
> 3) If job3's priority is changed to LOW then the collection wont change but delete will bail out on j1 itself as the comparator will return a -ve number. TreeSet uses the comparator both for sorting and deleting. If  i indicates the index in the collection and obj represents the object under consideration, then looks like TreeSet.remove(obj) follows something like  :
> - continue to search if the compare(i, obj) is -ve
> - bail out if the compare(i, obj) is +ve
> - delete the obj of compare(i,obj) == 0
