What you thinking Andrew?

Trace is broke whether we upgrade or not. As is, we mislead. We give off
the impression that hooking up hbase and hdfs via trace tells a story about
request traversals when it at best you'd get a wonky view.

HTrace needs work. HBase and HDFS also need work before we can suggest to
our users this system is viable debugging.

What you reckon Andrew?
Thanks,
