Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-4583:
--------------------------------------

RowMutation is currently limited to Puts and Deletes. Generalizing this is not 
trivial:
* You have make all the changes to the WAL first, sync the WAL, then change the 
memstore
* Potentially you want to release the row lock before the WAL-sync, which mean 
a rollback phase to the memstore if the WAL sync failed, etc.
* Puts and Deletes only need snapshot isolation for consistency, whereas 
Increment and Append need to be serializable.
* Put/Delete/etc are idempotent (client can retry on error) whereas 
Incement/Append generally aren't (we could make so by passing tokens along).

Long way of saying: It's possible, but maybe not as simple as might imagine. :)

> Currently Increment and Append operations do not work with RWCC and hence a 
> client could see the results of multiple such operation mixed in the same 
> Get/Scan.
> The semantics might be a bit more interesting here as upsert adds and removes 
> to and from the memstore.
