> Currently there are 2 public SequenceFile.Reader constructors, 3 public 
> SequenceFile.Writer constructors, 9 public SequenceFile.createWriter, 2 
> public MapFile.Reader constructors, and 8 public MapFile.Writer constructors. 
> All of with various historical combinations of parameters that don't cover 
> the entire space.
> All of this makes it *very* difficult to add new optional parameters to 
> SequenceFile and MapFile. 
> I'd like change to the style of FileContext.create with option parameters. 
> I'll implement one public SequenceFile.Reader constructor and one public 
> SequenceFile.createWriter and implement all of the current variants based on 
> those two. I'll do the same for MapFile.Reader and MapFile.Writer including 
> passing parameters down to the underlying SequenceFile.
