Dmitriy V. Ryaboy commented on PIG-2506:
----------------------------------------
That wouldn't work in all cases. In our deployment, for example, we have
packages in pig.import.list that aren't necessarily on the classpath when Pig
starts (they are parts of common jars we register, like elephant-bird). Also
finding all udfs in a package is actually pretty tricky. We are mostly
concerned with builtins here, so we can just generate that list statically and
not pay the runtime cost of examining all the jars, right?

> These builtins should respond to lowercase form as well. I am tired of

> write code just like my Dad's SQL. Cascading fans make fun of my upper case
> L's and P's. I just don't want to write uppercase Pig anymore. I just can't
> do it.
