> I've created two additional filters for HBase: WhileMatchRowFilter and 
> StopRowFilter.  WhileMatchRowFilter is an extension of RegExpRowFilter; it 
> also filters rows based on whether they match a specified regex.  However, 
> unlike its parent, WhileMatchRowFilter filters everything after it's first 
> filtered row - once a row fails to match regex or column specifications, 
> filterAllRemaining() always returns true.  This type of functionality will be 
> useful when filtering for a set of adjacent rows that match a certain regex 
> (as opposed to every row that matches that regex).
> StopRowFilter filters out every row greater than or equal to a specified 
> rowKey (the stopRow).  The filter assumes that the rowKeys it receives are in 
> alphabetical order, so once a key greater than the stopRow is encountered 
> filterAllRemaining() will return true.  StopRowFilter will be useful for 
> alphabetical filtering.
> Both filters come with JUnit tests, namely TestWhileMatchRowFilter and 
> TestStopRowFilter.
