> When setting up a compression codec in an MR job the full class name of the codec must be used.
> To ease usability, compression codecs should be resolved by their codec name (ie 'gzip', 'deflate', 'zlib', 'bzip2') instead their full codec class name.
> Besides easy of use for Hadoop users who would use the codec alias instead the full codec class name, it could simplify how HBase resolves loads the codecs.
