Tom White commented on HADOOP-6677:
-----------------------------------

Perhaps it could be optional - if no components are listed, then that means that any component may use it.

> Trying to keep the list of all possible components sharing limited private interfaces up to date is painful.  As other subprojects beyond HDFS and MR use this interface it will only get worse (see PIG-1311).  If it is converted to a string other subprojects can use it without requiring patches to common.
