> Currently we use java serialization for the WAL that stores the offsets contained in each batch.  This has two main issues:
>  - It can break across spark releases (though this is not the only thing preventing us from upgrading a running query)
>  - It is unnecessarily opaque to the user.
> I'd propose we require offsets to provide a user readable serialization and use that instead.  JSON is probably a good option.
