Michael Stack commented on HBASE-11288:
---------------------------------------

Left some comments up on the PR.

bq. We have rest and thrift proxies. I don't see why we can't do this. Do you 
want it implemented now as a PoC before we go forward with completing the 
feature?

I think we should figure out how this will work. Can be done in parallel in 
another issue. Baseline is old clients keep working.

bq. What are your concerns with [ROOT]? Trying to understand what needs to be 
addressed? 

The tiering of assignment -- root going out before anything else, then all of 
the meta regions and then user-space regions. And that ROOT is just so ugly... 
the way the rows are done; the crazy comparator.

bq. Do you remember any of the big issues? I think procedures have helped in 
that regard. We've not have any problems AFAIK with 1.3 that uses SCPs, etc. 
ChaosMonkey should suss any other issues out?

Currently we have meta and namespace and acls and we still don't get it right 
(Duo helped us out here by merging namespace into meta table in master branch).

We should do up a bit of a doc on how this will work; how it will work for old 
and new clients (e.g. handing out the whole meta table when client does meta 
location lookup); how the proxying will be done so old clients will work when 
meta splits, etc.
