Resolution: Won't Fix
Closing this as Won't Fix since consensus will clearly never be reached.
(JIRA needs a 'Hung Jury' resolution option!)

> Currently, the generic serialization framework uses Map<String,String> for
> the serialization specific configuration. Since this data is really internal
> to the specific serialization, I think we should change it to be an opaque
> binary blob. This will simplify the interface for defining specific
> serializations for different contexts (MAPREDUCE-1462). It will also move us
> toward having serialized objects for Mappers, Reducers, etc (MAPREDUCE-1183).
