The biggest issue I'm having at the moment is that MultipleOutputs under 0.20 doesn't give you complete control over the output path. MultipleOutputFormat on the other hand gives complete control, but it looks like they've put some checks inside to ensure that this output format is never called from the new API.
In my case I tried going back to the old API in order to use MultipleOutputFormat, but this lead to another issue, specifically that I cannot access the configuration from generateFileNameForKeyValue().
