Jonathan Hsieh commented on HBASE-7965:
---------------------------------------
I think it is unfair to claim that the ability to change schema without
disabling the table is a feature that is required to for HBase to be production
ready.
The feature is it is off by default, essentially documented as experimental
({{"Its off by default. Enable it at your own risk."}} [1]), so in my eyes
fixing it essentially feels like a new feature.

(Sorry for the delay, was away for a 2 weeks).

> Port table locking to 0.94 (HBASE-7305, HBASE-7546, HBASE-7933). This is a
> new feature, but there has been some interest, and it is necessary for
> snapshots, and online merge, which are also candidates for backport.
> If we port snapshots, we might need HBASE-7848 as well.
> We can also do disabled by default.
