Review comment:
> What do you mean by launch contexts here?
I mean any of the various classes that are eventually launched by
`bin/hbase`. Some paths append server-specific settings, client-specific,
shell-specific, and others append nothing. From what I can tell, all of these
start with `HBASE_OPTS`.
