> Due to the iterator-based API of CSVParser, there is currently no simple and 
> convenient way to parse single lines of CSV-formatted data. The intention of 
> this ticket is to add something along the lines of the following:
> {code}
> CSVLineParser lineParser = new CSVLineParser(csvFormat);
> String singleLine = "a,b,c";
> CSVRecord singleRecord lineParser.parseLine(singleLine);
> {code}
> The use case of parsing single lines comes up very often in terms of 
> distributed batch processing scenarios (i.e. Hadoop jobs), and CSV-style 
> formats are also regularly used in such scenarios. Currently, projects are 
> often forced to build their own ad-hoc CSV parsing solutions, so adding the 
> ability to parse single lines to commons-csv would be very useful to these 
> projects, as well as anyone doing parsing based on input that isn't necessary 
> in the form of a single stream.
