Hi Bryan,

good question. We can probably keep supporting v1 if we wanted to but
I'm wondering if it's worth the effort (personally I think not).
I do agree that it should not be backported!

And I have wondered the same. If you look at the history of the issue
I kinda proposed forwarding parameters as well but then thought that
it would mean giving someone "access" to a shell with HBase privileges
and we'd need to deal with sanitizing inputs and making sure people do
nothing malicious.
That was a task that I wasn't prepared to tackle so I opted to keep
the current route and just update it.

I hope that makes sense?

Cheers,
Lars
