> When people write unit test for UDF, they always need to build a tuple or 
> bag. If we change the interface of Tuple and DataBag,  make the set and 
> append method return this, it can decrease the code size.  e.g. Now people 
> have to write the following code to build a Tuple:
> {code}
> Tuple tuple=TupleFactory.getInstance().newTuple(3);
> tuple.set(0,"item_0");
> tuple.set(1,"item_1");
> tuple.set(2,"item_2");
> {code}
> If we change the interface,  make the set and append method return this, we 
> can rewrite the above code like this:
> {code}
> Tuple tuple=TupleFactory.getInstance().newTuple(3);
> tuple.set(0,"item_0").set(1,"item_1").set(2,"item_2");
> {code}
> This interface change won't have back compatibility problem and I think 
> there's no performance problem too.
