----------------------------------

Nah, I think you have it right. I was overdesigning it. I'm going to blame it 
on sleep deprivation. ;-)

> FlumeJava has the concept of a PObject<T>, a container for a singleton of 
> type T.  It is meant represent the result of a distributed computation that 
> yields a singleton value (for example max, min, and length methods on 
> PCollection<T>).  Generally speaking, the result of any computation that 
> combines/reduces a PCollection into a singleton value could be represented by 
> a PObject.  
> Like PCollection, a PObject defers distributed computation until its value is 
> actually used.
