Todd Lipcon commented on HBASE-3996:
------------------------------------
The other question is whether we need version compatibility at all for this
enum. The split object is created when you submit the job, and then only used
by that one job, right? i.e it's never persisted or transferred over the wire
to some other process, is it?
> Support multiple tables and scanners as input to the mapper in map/reduce jobs

> jobs.
> I propose a new MultiTableInputFormat class that would allow doing this.
