-----------------------------------

I've also noticed something else. Choosing the Jackson Parser doesn't actually work.

> The CSVReader doesn't currently provide a way to set null for the quote and escape characters. This is needed if your processing data with a single delimiter like a tab but the data may contain quotes and slashes and such. While you can set the quote and delimiter to another character this isn't always practical. It looks like the Jackson CSV reader is already written to except nulls for those characters and correctly disable quotes but the actual service doesn't allow it.
