INLINE COMMENTS
  src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/util/Bytes.java:1371 Formatting nit:
  if() return null;
  src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/util/Bytes.java:1417 Trying to reason 
with this one - so to make it an inclusive range, we are making the delta [ 
(end - start)/numSplits + 1 ]. Wondering if that would always give the required 
number of uniform sized regions.

> HBASE-4489 changed the default endKey on HexStringSplit from 7FFF... to 
> FFFF...  While this is correct, existing users of 0.90 RegionSplitter have 
> 7FFF as the end key in their schema and the last region will not split 
> properly under this new code.  We need to let the user specify a custom 
> start/end key range for when situations like this arise.  Optimally, we 
> should also write the start/end key in META so we could figure this out 
> implicitly instead of requiring the user to explicitly specify it.
