> The idea is to have a way to easily create block id generation engines that 
> may fit a certain purpose. One of them could be HDFS-898 started by 
> Konstantin, but potentially others.
> We chatted with Dhruba about this for a while and came up with the following 
> approach:
> There should be a BlockIDGenerator interface that has following methods:
> void blockAdded(Block)
> void blockRemoved(Block)
> Block nextBlock()
> First two methods are needed for block generation engines that hold a certain 
> state. During the restart, when namenode reads the fsimage it will notify 
> generator about all the blocks it reads from the image and during runtime 
> namenode will notify the generator about block removals on file deletion.
> The instance of the generator will also have a reference to the block 
> registry, the interface that BlockManager implements. The only method there 
> is __blockExists(Block)__, so that the current random block id generation can 
> be implemented, since it needs to check with the block manager if the id is 
> already present.
> What does the community think about this proposal?
