   > I don't think there's value in adding custom type support to ORC if we're 
not going to use it anyway?
   
   The suggestion is not to add custom type support. The suggestion is to merge 
together the different readerFunctions, writerFunctions. Currently we have 2-3 
versions of them for every file format. We also have a different builder method 
setting every one of them. Russell's change created a single, common reader 
function which handles all of the cases, and enables us to add new inputs to 
the functions easily. We could follow the same pattern for every FileFormat. 
The File Format API will need to add new parameters to these methods. This is 
way easier if we use similar ReadBuilder interfaces like the one introduced by 
Russell in this PR.
