> Allow stellar enrichments to be specified by a list as well as a map
> --------------------------------------------------------------------

> Project: Metron

>
> Currently, stellar enrichments are specified by a map associating fields with
> the stellar expressions associated with the fields. There is a significant
> downside here in that you cannot update previously assigned fields. For
> instance, the following cannot be represented currently:
> {code}
> "fieldMap": {
> ...
> "stellar" : {
> "config" : {
> "hostname" : "if ENDS_WITH(hostname, '.') then CHOP(hostname) else
> hostname",
> "hostname" : "TO_LOWER(hostname)"
> }
> }
> }
> {code}
> A consequent of this deficiency is that we also cannot use temporary
> variables and unset them after their use inside an enrichment group.
> The proposed change is to allow users to use lists of strings representing
> stellar expression assignments with the same syntax as the Stellar REPL.
> This would be as an alternative to maps, but the map syntax would also be
> supported for legacy.
