@tedxia I don't really like the idea. I think we should make it simple for
people to do that, but the problem is hdfs and hbase are more than just a set
of jars. The configuration required to make them work is often extensive.
Perhaps what we can do is to have storm-hdfs and storm-hbase in
extlib-daemon by default, and inside the default storm-env.sh we look for
hadoop and hbase on the PATH, and if they are found we append the result of
`hadoop classpath` and `hbase classpath` to STORM_EXT_CLASSPATH_DAEMON.
That way they are there to be used if hadoop and hbase are setup on the
node and we are not tied to a very specific version or configuration of hadoop
and hbase.
