stack commented on HBASE-859:
-----------------------------

See HBASE-868 for the lengths the lads had to go to to avoid a migration and 
hack in a fix for fact we couldn't do binary keys.  Need to undo most of it 
when HSK gets done properly.   This issue needs to include a unit test that 
uses binary keys and many regions.  See HBASE-868 for note on how to make PE do 
binary keys.

> HBASE-832 had to make an ugly hack to address fact that rows that included 
> the delimiter -- or a byte < delimiter -- messed up sorting in .META.  Fix 
> the ugly hack, and while we're at it, add a byte for flags to the HSK so can 
> mark if key is a meta key, a delete key (cell/family/row), etc.
