Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-6323:
--------------------------------------

> What needs to be done to implement this API?

The abstract method needs to be added to SerializationBase, then it needs t o 
be implemented.  For Writable this can use WritableComparator.  For Avro, it 
can be implemented with BinaryData#compare().

> Serialization should provide comparators
