> With the addition of types to pig, maps were changed to allow any atomic type 
> to be a key.  However, in practice we do not see people using keys other than 
> strings.  And allowing multiple types is causing us issues in serializing 
> data (we have to check what every key type is) and in the design for non-java 
> UDFs (since many scripting languages include associative arrays such as 
> Perl's hash).
> So I propose we scope back maps to only have string keys.  This would be a 
> non-compatible change.  But I am not aware of anyone using non-string keys, 
> so hopefully it would have little or no impact.
