------------------------------------

The thing is that, the current patch looks at ReadOnly to determine if a call 
should go to observer, meaning if a method is annotated with ReadOnly, it 
always go to Observer, is this the case? Because there may be situations where 
we want to make a read call to active, which becomes impossible. I guess a more 
ideal way would probably be having new annotations for observer operation and 
active options, which is also for better readability.

The ReadOnly annotation added in HDFS-13578 supports a flag {{activeOnly}} to 
indicate that, although it is a read operation, it should only be served by the 
active. Does this meet your requirement or are you saying there should be a way 
to dynamically decide?
