> PCollectionList support in cross-language transforms

> Key: BEAM-8804
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-8804
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: beam-model
> Reporter: Heejong Lee
> Priority: P2
> Labels: stale-P2
>
> Currently, Beam model doesn't have any information on the order of
> input/output PCollections from PTransforms. Therefore, PCollectionList needs
> to be converted to PCollectionTuple when it goes across the cross-language
> boundaries (or even in the same language, whenever it is converted between
> in-memory object and proto) and it's impossible to recreate PCollectionList
> from proto with the original order. The possible workaround is just to use
> PCollectionTuple with integer id (starting from 0 like indexes) instead of
> PCollectionList. In that case, we should first well-define how we generate
> proto from PCollectionList since each SDK uses a different convention.
