> Currently HBase has a pretty flat directory structure. For example:
> {code}
>  /hbase/hregion_70236052/info
> /hbase/hregion_70236052/info/info/4328260619704027575
> /hbase/hregion_70236052/info/mapfiles/4328260619704027575
> /hbase/hregion_70236052/info/mapfiles/4328260619704027575/data
> /hbase/hregion_70236052/info/mapfiles/4328260619704027575/index
> {code}
> All the region directories are under the root directory, and with encoded 
> region names, it is impossible to determine what table a region belongs to. 
> This should be restructured to:
> {code}
> /root-directory/table-name/encoded-region-name/column-family/{info,mapfiles}
> {code}
> It will be necessary to provide a migration script from current trunk to the 
> new structure.
