> Currently user can specify both file type (SequenceFile, DataStream, ...) and 
> writable format (Text ~ append new line character, Writable ~ serialize as 
> is) of HDFS sink output file. Both properties have default values, however 
> when user redefine only file type to DataStream, flume will still use default 
> Writable writable format that will not append separate serialized events with 
> new line character. 
> Would be nice if flume would choose default value of writable format based on 
> current file type, so that for example for DataStream file type, default 
> writable format would be Text instead of Writable. I believe that would lead 
> to less confused users.
