Is this the best time to ask for changing field name convention to avoid
dot or colon? We are externally using Hive external tables on HDFS data, due to
Hive limitations we need to change the Metron field convention. I heard there
is a long term plan in future to use ORC files instead of JSON and maybe Hive
table can be supported directly. If this is right maybe this is the best time
we can move towards changing field seperators accordingly.
