Maybe this is as simple as changing the class definition from:
public class DefaultBlurReducer extends Reducer<Text, BlurMutate, Text,
BlurMutate> {
To:
public class DefaultBlurReducer extends Reducer<Writable, BlurMutate,
Writable, BlurMutate> {
That way any key type could be used. We should also change the
BlurRecordWriter and BlurOutputFormat to reflect this.
