> HCatalog assumes map keys are primitive types. When the underlying data 
> allows complex struct to be map keys, such as Thrift, HCatalog should provide 
> an option to allow users to auto-convert the keys to strings. The default 
> behavior is still rejecting the data, but the option to convert should be 
> provided.
