Jimmy Xiang commented on HBASE-8383:
------------------------------------

Definitely there are many options. I am not aware the background for the 
convention. I think it is reasonable.
Too many choices could be confusing, especially when they don't offer too much 
additional values.

The existing convention is to look jars with path like /lib/*.jar.
The problem is that it requires users to put jars under /lib/ at first, then 
create the coprocessor jar.
It will be much easier to put jars under lib/.  That's the reason for this 
issue.
                
> Support lib/*jar inside coprocessor jar

> Currently, jar files inside a coprocessor jar should be under folder /lib/.  
> It would be great to support jar files under lib/ too, i.e, no "/" at the 
> front.
