Josh Elser commented on HBASE-19770:
------------------------------------
Looks like this one is caused by HBASE-15965. FYI [~appy].
I can understand wanting to prevent IRB from printing the object from the
command (when the formatter printed it nicely), but are we sure we want to do
this by default? Caught me by surprise. I'm not sure I'd agree with the
assertion that "all interactive shells do not want return values".
> `list` shell command does not return an array of table names

> The {{list}} command should be returning {{\['a'\]}} but is not.
> The command class itself appears to be doing the right thing -- maybe the
> retval is getting lost somewhere else?
