Jesse Yates commented on HBASE-5548:
------------------------------------
Waiting on your comments as to if you liked the design of the current patch,
with the addition of the table methods via class-reopening and with the
internal vs external method stuff, etc. If you are happy, then I'll do the rest
of the table commands (put, get, etc.) in the same style and throw a patch up
on RB tonight so everyone gets a chance to look.

> Currently, all the commands that operate on a table in the shell first have
> to take the table as name as input.
> There are two main considerations:
> * It is annoying to have to write the table name every time, when you should
> just be able to get a reference to a table
> * the current implementation is very wasteful - it creates a new HTable for
> each call (but reuses the connection since it uses the same configuration)
> We should be able to get a handle to a single HTable and then operate on that.
