-------------------------------------------------------------

In owen's table, I assume {{\\}} is a backSLASH, not a backquote.

More substantively, I think I would rather see an escape for the zero byte, 
perhaps \0 imaginatively enough, added to Owen's table.

> Right now, the streaming framework expects the output sof the steam process 
> (mapper or reducer) are line 
> oriented UTF-8 text. This limit makes it impossible to use those programs 
> whose outputs may be non-UTF-8
>  (international encoding, or maybe even binary data). Streaming can overcome 
> this limit by introducing a simple
> encoding protocol. For example, it can allow the mapper/reducer to hexencode 
> its keys/values, 
> the framework decodes them in the Java side.
> This way, as long as the mapper/reducer executables follow this encoding 
> protocol, 
> they can output arabitary bytearray and the streaming framework can handle 
> them.
