----------------------------------------
Hey Chris. So, is that a +0? Should I go ahead and commit this to the native
task branch?
> Allow map output collector fallback

> Currently we only allow specifying a single MapOutputCollector implementation
> class in a job. It would be nice to allow a comma-separated list of classes:
> we should try each collector implementation in the user-specified order until
> we find one that can be successfully instantiated and initted.
> This is useful for cases where a particular optimized collector
> implementation cannot operate on all key/value types, or requires native
> code. The cluster administrator can configure the cluster to try to use the
> optimized collector and fall back to the default collector.
