Review Comment:
   Actually looking into this, if I don't re-use the metadata column I have to 
change a lot of codes, like:
   
   - BaseDataReader.constantsMap will need new method to populate partition 
based on new partition id, which I'll have to pass in based on what field is 
selected.  (Currently since both id's are the same it works)
   - All the error checks for whether selected columns are in metadata columns 
need to take this into account.  Currently this uses 
MetadataColumns.metadataFieldIds(), which will need to be now something like 
MetadataColumns.metadataAndConstantFieldIds()  to take into account new column.
