> Hadoop record I/O can be used effectively outside of Hadoop. It would 
> increase its utility if developers can use it without having to import hadoop 
> classes, or having to depend on Hadoop jars. Following changes to the current 
> translator and runtime are proposed.
> Proposed Changes:
> 1. Use java.lang.String as a native type for ustring (instead of Text.)
> 2. Provide a Buffer class as a native Java type for buffer (instead of 
> BytesWritable), so that later BytesWritable could be implemented as following 
> DDL:
> module org.apache.hadoop.io {
>   record BytesWritable {
>     buffer value;
>   }
> }
> 3. Member names in generated classes should not have prefixes 'm' before 
> their names. In the above example, the private member name would be 'value' 
> not 'mvalue' as it is done now.
> 4. Convert getters and setters to have CamelCase. e.g. in the above example 
> the getter will be:
>   public Buffer getValue();
> 5. Generate clone() methods for records in Java i.e. the generated classes 
> should implement Cloneable.
> 6. Make generated Java codes for maps and vectors use Java generics.
> These are the proposed user-visible changes. Internally, the translator will 
> be restructured so that it is easier to plug-in translators for different 
> targets.
