Dmitriy V. Ryaboy commented on PIG-794:
---------------------------------------
Doug and Scott will know better of course, but afaik, Avro doesn't support
Object keys.
You can cheat and turn Object keys into strings by Base64-encoding their
serialized representations.. you'd have to know to reverse the process when
deserializing, though.
Or we can try to get rid of InternalMap.
