Julien Le Dem commented on PIG-1819:
------------------------------------

In the following example:
{code}
from org.apache.pig.scripting import Pig
... ...
separator = "$"
results = Pig.compile("""
A = LOAD 'data' USING PigStorage('$separator') AS (a,b,c);
....
""").bind().run()
{code}
Let's assume I want to use $ as a separator, how can we do that? It seems to be 
a reasonable use case and silently skipping the variable does not seem like a 
good idea.

> For implicit binding, Jython embedded Pig should skip any variable/value that 
> contains $.
