Josh, I believe you are correct. I'm looking through another 3rd party code that extends GeoTools AbstractDataStore class for use with Accumulo.

It sounds like this might be a part of what is provided by this GeoTools product. Not sure. There aren't any built-in metadata attributes in 1.4. The data in the !METADATA table is used to track which servers are hosting what parts of each table, the files in HDFS that make up each table, etc. Maybe GeoTools is tracking their own metadata in a custom table?
