1. I wanted to keep it simple. You can't really wire up the writer without
going through most of that, and I wanted to have a simple configuration option
for just dumping a schema in for less experienced users who just want to get
stuff done.
2. I think that would make a good follow on ticket. Some thought would be
need to determine how to control the size of a record set. I could see that
causing issues for processors.
