"jrrbs" == "jobs." As in, "They took our jrrbs!"

Even so, the case of debugging that you're talking about will only happen when 
someone is just using raw strings as the arguments and not a variable (if the 
variable changes, the problem becomes applying the wrong iterator stack to a 
table, which I don't think we can really enforce). Until the mechanism to 
configure jobs isn't just applying partial mutations to a {{Configuration}} 
object, we're going to deal with issues like this, even in a single table case. 
Any hardening of the API should happen after we've at least added this feature 
so that we have it now and can consider it for the API change.

> Just realized we had no MR input method which supports multiple Tables for an 
> input format. I would see it making the table the mapper's key and making the 
> Key/Value a tuple, or alternatively have the Table/Key be the key tuple and 
> stick with Values being the value.
