> The various initTableMapperJob methods in TableMapReduceUtil take 
> outputKeyClass and outputValueClass parameters which need to extend 
> WritableComparable and Writable respectively. 
> Because of this, it is not convenient to use an alternative serialization 
> like Avro. (I wanted to set these parameters to AvroKey and AvroValue). 
> The methods in the MapReduce API to set map output key and value types do not 
> impose this restriction, so is there a reason to do it here?
