Improvements for PigStorage
---------------------------

                 Key: PIG-2143
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2143
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Dmitriy V. Ryaboy


I'd like to propose that we allow for a greater degree of customization in 
PigStorage.

An incomplete list features that we might want to add:

- flag to tell it to overwrite existing output if it exists
- flag to tell it to compress output using gzip|bzip|lzo (currently this can be 
achieved by setting the directory name to end in .gz or .bz2, which is a bit 
awkward)
- flag to tell it to store the schema and header (perhaps by merging in 
PigStorageSchema work?)
