Joydeep Sen Sarma commented on HIVE-134:
----------------------------------------

why is this a concern?

i vaguely remember discussing this long time in the past - and don't quite 
agree that this is a bug. table serde properties capture per-table 
configuration. but there are session or global configurations that can affect 
serde behavior. for example - suppose we add a new option to dynamicserde to do 
type conversions on demand (just as an example). it maybe that we want to test 
this strategy out - the way we would control it is by passing the configuration 
object in and controlling it via session options.
