Chris Douglas commented on HADOOP-11640:
----------------------------------------
bq. I also think we should consider supporting an escaping mechanism. Perhaps
commas prefaced by backslashes can turn into commas embedded in elements. This
would remove the need for changing the delimiter altogether, and be a
compatible change.

> As mentioned by org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration.getStrings ("Get the
> comma delimited values of the name property as an array of Strings"), only
> comma separated strings can be used. It would be much better if user defined
> separators are supported.
