Alan Gates commented on PIG-1564:
---------------------------------

We do intend to remove it, though at the moment there is no other way to access 
HDFS for UDFs.  So before we can officially deprecate it we need to come up 
with a replacement.

Andrew, as Richard points out, as of Pig 0.7 load and store functions no longer 
use HDataStorage.  Do you still see this patch as being useful just for UDFs?  
Or are load and store functions the only use cases for it?

> add support for multiple filesystems

> Currently you can't run Pig scripts that read data from one file system and 
> write it to another. Also, Grunt doesn't support CDing from one directory to 
> another on different file systems.
