> A mysqldump-based fast path known as "local mode" is used in sqoop when users
> pass the argument {{--local.}} The restriction that this only import from
> localhost was based on an implementation technique that was later abandoned
> in favor of a more general one, which can support remote hosts as well. Thus,
> {{--local}} is a poor name for the flag. {{--direct}} is more general and
> more descriptive. This should be used instead.
