I vote for keeping @aljoscha's original approach.
Users might not notice the different interfaces there, so the "Hadoop" in
the method name makes it more explicit.
Also, it could lead to confusions because Flink's and Hadoop's InputFormats
have pretty similar names (they actually only differ in the package names).
Lastly, it would cause some work on Aljoscha's side to update the code and
the documentation.
