Andras Salamon commented on OOZIE-2949:
---------------------------------------

[~dionusos] Using a feature flag could help us to avoid problems with the 
existing customers. On the other hand, we already have lots of flags, that can 
be confusing. 

What should be the default value of this flag? If we'd like to encourage the 
users, the default value should be the 'new-style'. Of course it may change the 
current workflow for existing users, they will be asked to change this flag to 
'old-style' if necessary.

[~markuskem...@me.com] Could you please share your experience. What are the 
common workflow for a typical oozie + sqoop user? Do they use theĀ {{command}} 
tag or multiple {{arg}} tags?

> The current behavior of the Sqoop action is:
> {noformat}
> The Sqoop command can be specified either using the command element or 
> multiple arg elements.
> When using the command element, Oozie will split the command on every space 
> into multiple arguments.
> When using the arg elements, Oozie will pass each argument value as an 
> argument to Sqoop.
> {noformat}
> This prevents the user to simply copy-paste the command worked in the shell 
> into the workflow.xml.
> We should split the <command> field by taking quotes into account, similar to 
> what OOZIE-2391
> did for the Spark action's <spark-opts> field.
