Github user cestella commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/incubator-metron/pull/517 @ottobackwards Thanks for the +1 and yeah, I definitely hear the concern. I wanted a rudimentary set of functional primitives, but there should be a follow-up to correct some issues with them around capability, such as supporting more complex data structures than lists (i.e. supporting `MAP({ 'key' : 'value', 'key2' : 'value2' }, (k,v) -> JOIN([k, v], ':'))` should be `['key:value', 'key2:value2'])`). In that case, it wouldn't assume a single argument. Oh, also, we do actually validate before a zookeeper push all stellar statements. It will fail if you botch the stellar. I'm looking forward to a proper UI around stellar, though, for sure. :)
