A Single DistributedRowMatrix with Multiple SequenceFiles

Hi,

I was wondering why the constructor of DistributedRowMatrix restricts the
inputpath to a single file. Is there a way to construct a
DistributedRowMatrix using multiple input files (splits of the matrix) by
passing a Path[ ] for the inputPath?

Not yet, but it makes a lot of sense to allow an InputProvider from the
guava library in addition to a single file.  Not a lot of sense in things
in between.
