> When a lambda or method reference is used in Java 8 to provide a SerializableFunction<InputT, OutputT>, it is instantiated at the raw type SerializableFunction. We occasionally require reflective access to the actual parameter for OutputT, but it will be unavailable.
> MapElements and FlatMapElements thus use the analogous abstract class SimpleFunction in such situations to prevent use of a lambda or method reference. They then support lambda via separate constructors that require user help to determine the concrete output type.
> This ticket calls for an audit of such situations.
