> {{CollectionDataSets}} are a nice way to feed data into programs.
> We could add support to read a client-local file at program construction time using a FileInputFormat, put its data into a CollectionDataSet, and ship its data together with the program.
> This would remove the need to upload small files into DFS which are used together with some large input (stored in DFS).
