> A coworker of mine just had this scenario. It does not make sense the 
> EMPTY_START_ROW as splitKey (since the region with the empty start key is 
> implicit), but it should not cause the HMaster to abort.
> The abort happens because it tries to bulk assign the same region twice and 
> then runs into race conditions with ZK.
> The same would (presumably) happen when two identical split keys are passed, 
> but the client blocks that. The simplest solution here is to also block 
> passed null or EMPTY_START_ROW as split key by the client.
