> Just as ORC allows the choice of columns to enable bloom-filters on, it would
> be nice to have a way to specify which columns {{DICTIONARY_V2}} encoding
> should be disabled on.
> Currently, the choice of dictionary-encoding depends on the results of
> sampling the first row-stride within a stripe. If the user knows that a
> column's cardinality is bound to prevent an effective dictionary, she might
> choose to simply disable it on just that column, and avoid the cost of
> sampling in the first row-stride.
