Heng Chen commented on HBASE-16381:
-----------------------------------

IMO use another command is a good choice.   
If we use deleteall,  how to deal with the situation of delete all rows of one 
cell in a table?   use command like  deleteall 't1', 'c1' ?  how to distinguish 
'c1' is row's name or column's name?

> Shell deleteall command should support row key prefixes
