Jarek Jarcec Cecho commented on SQOOP-2333:
-------------------------------------------

Thanks for the patch [~raksharma]! Sqoop is a tool designed to import/export 
data from relational databases to hadoop and back again. Even though that we're 
re-using the Tool infrastructure from Hadoop, I don't think that we ever 
planned for it to be a first class citizen that is exposed to end users. Having 
said that Sqoop is developing and nothing is set in stone forever. But since 
this is a quite huge change of the current direction, might I suggest to start 
a discussion on dev mailing list?

> Sqoop currently does not provide any mechanism to define custom switches for 
> the user defined tools. it would be nice if we can enhance Sqoop to support 
> user defined Custom Tool options.
