Hi,  
It seems possible to do:  
`man = MPIWorkerManager(20);`  
to get more MPI nodes in an interactive session with MPIClusterManagers.jl. However, I’d like to take nodes from other machines, similar to `addprocs` from Distributed.jl:  
`addprocs([("machine1",:auto),("machine2",:auto)])`  
Is there a way to do this?  
Thanks a lot!
