------------------------------------------

Ok, I can understand the concerns and agree with you on not exposing LP.

What I stated earlier is exactly the info I need - using PigServer register 
script/query and be able to determine the source/sinks. For eg, in the 
following snippet I read a script "script.pig". I don't control the contents of 
the script (written by other users) and as an admin would like to make sure I 
can read the I/O paths being used here. 

{code}
pigServer = new PigServer(ExecType.MAPREDUCE, conf);
InputStream in = fs.open("/foo/script.pig");
pigServer.registerScript(in);
{code}

script.pig
{code}
A = load '/apache/pig/*';
B = store A into '/google';
{code}

The idea with this patch was to be able to determine source (/apache/pig) and 
sink (/google) and perform certain operations on it. Would be great if you 
think it can be done in a way better than exposing any of LP/Operator.

> LogicalPlan could be exposed to user in order for one to make validations 
> based on it. For eg, one could get Load/Store paths or other operators and be 
> able to perform checks such as whether I/O paths are valid etc.
