---------------------------------------------
Jake or Robbie -- have you tested this with BOF? I've confirmed that it looks
like this only streams one of the two named multiple outputs.
> ColumnFamilyOutputFormat should support writing to multiple column families

> It is not currently possible to output records to more than one column family
> in a single reducer. Considering that writing values to Cassandra often
> involves multiple column families (i.e. updating your index when you insert a
> new value), this seems overly restrictive. I am submitting a patch that
> moves the specification of column family from the job configuration to the
> write() call in ColumnFamilyRecordWriter.
