Hi Flinksters,

At one stage in my data stream, I want to save the stream to a set of rolling 
files where the file name used (i.e. the bucket) is chosen based on an 
attribute of each data record.  Specifically, I’m using a windowing function to 
create aggregates of certain metrics and I want to save that data in a file 
with a name that identifies the window.

I was planning to write my own bucketer for this, but in version 1.1.2 the 
Bucketer interface doesn’t allow for the element being processed to be passed 
to the relevant methods (e.g. getNextBucketPath and shouldStartNewBucket).  I 
see that this is taken care of in 1.2, but since that isn’t available yet, can 
anyone recommend a workaround?  Alternatively, is there a way to have the 
DateTimeBucketer use assigned timestamps instead of system time?
