----------------------------------------
Hi JB, Tim
Yes, TikaReader returns Strings, but as JB just pointed out the default coder
is not used, so I'll fix it, thanks JB :-).
Tim, the reason I mentioned that I do not expect 'anything but Strings' is
because in many cases, as far as I can see, Beam readers can be typed for
different types and custom Beam coders can support such conversions, but I
agree in case of Tika is is really only about String as it is impossible to
predict at the generic Tika API level what a given format parser can produce,
etc...
Tim - I also updated the reader to use TikaInputStream, thanks
