location cache

                 Key: HBASE-832
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-832
             Project: Hadoop HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: client
    Affects Versions: 0.2.0
            Reporter: Jean-Daniel Cryans
             Fix For: 0.2.1, 0.3.0


We currently have a problem the way we design .META. row keys. When user table 
row keys begin with characters lesser than ',' like a '$', any operation will 
fail when:

- A client has a certain set of regions in cache
- One region with the faulty row key splits 
- The client receives a request for a row in the split region

The reason is that it will first get a NSRE then it will try to locate a region 
using the passed row key. For example: 
Row in META: entities,,1216750777411
Row passed: entities,$-94f9386f-e235-4cbd-aacc-37210a870991,99999999999999

The passed row is lesser then the row in .META.
