I could see ppl getting excited about adding mr2 support.
Given MR2 kills the MiniMRCluster, everyone who used that for their
in-VM testing (I bring it up as a separate process for the lifespan of

I don't know whether 0.22 will be something people will use, or whether
they will stay with 0.20.x until 0.23 stabilises (2012 at my guess); if
there is an easy way of doing 0.20.x support that could help too. (*).
Currently the majority of Hadoop users can't use MRUnit
