Ivan Kelly commented on HDFS-1580:
----------------------------------

I'd like to keep the pluggable bit (JournalFactory, or 
JournalWriter&JournalReader) to one interface for ease of configuration. 
Otherwise when a user specifies a custom journal type in their configuration, 
they'll have to specify the class for the Writer and for the Reader.

The EditLogOutputStream i proposed won't coexist with the current 
EditLogOutputStream, it will replace it. We need a single interface for writing 
the edit log, so that FSEditLog can loop through all the streams and treat them 
the same.

I like the idea of TxnRecord.
