The only possible objection I can see is that the behavior for paths that
contains a ? or * would now change :- There is no behavior change currently,
currently user cannot provide the paths in load command with wild cards
because our validation logic which checks the existence of the hdfs path given
in load command cannot interpret wildcard and it throws exception, whereas in
hive they do support.
Basically wildcards will help user to load the data by considering all the
matching files based on wildcard. they shall not require to load data
providing entire file path string multiple times if they want to load data from
a specific set of folders/files .
