Question regarding sequence file iterators

I guess this is a question for Sean.

I see that SequenceFileValueIterator implements Closeable, so i can release it.

There's a very convenient implementation for globs,
SequenceFileDirIterator. But i don't see any close() or Closeable.

how do i release all those handles it holds?

Thanks.

Yeah this could be done -- we'd have to save off all the iterators that get
created in the transform() method and then close them later. Let me have a
go at it.
