Chris Richard updated HBASE-493:
--------------------------------

    Description: 
Write-If-Not-Modified-Since for optimistic concurrency control:

Client retrieves cell (or row) and stores timestamp.
Client writes to same cell (or row) and passes timestamp.
If the cell's (or row's) latest timestamp matches the passed timestamp, the 
write succeeds. If the timestamps do not match, the write fails and the client 
is notified. The client must re-retrieve the cell/row to get the latest 
timestamp before attempting to write back.

This behavior would be optional, if the client doesn't pass a timestamp to the 
write method, no modified check would be enforced.

Note: blocked behind HBASE-489 due to requirement that client be able to access 
timestamp values.

Note: requires HBASE-489 to be complete, in order for the client to be able to 
access timestamp values.
