> Group-at-a-time operators (Reduce & CoGroup) work on multiple records in one UDF call. Often these UDFs need to access the key that is common to all records of a group.
> We could add a function to set a the key of a group before the UDF is called (``setGroupKey()``) and a function to get the key (``getGroupKey()``) that can be called from the UDF.
