Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-3150:
--------------------------------------

We should use the "context" style here.  We should add something like:

{code}
public class OutputContext {
  // no public ctor -- only created by framework
  public Progressible getProgressible() {...};
  public JobConf getJob();
}
{code}

Then the OutputFormat methods can replace the JobConf parameters with 
OutputContext parameters.  If we ever need to add more items to the context we 
can easily do so without breaking application code.
