> Quite often, when I declare mapreduce jobs I have to create the union of two 
> or three schemas. For example:
> {code}
> AvroJob.setMapOutputKeySchema(job, 
> Schema.createUnion(Arrays.asList(Foo.SCHEMA$, Bar.SCHEMA$))
> {code}
> Having Schema.createUnion only accept a List hurts readability and force 
> users to write boilerplate code for such trivial, but I believe common, use 
> cases. It would be create to add {{Schema.createUnion(Schema... type)}}
