This is what happened when I tried to add a row with a non-existent column
family. In principle, it should be easy to create the column family and try
again. I'd like to have hbase throw a NoSuchColumnFamilyException so I can
figure out I need to create the column family. Alternately, it would be even
better if there were some option to make hbase create the column family for me.
