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.

> Priority: Critical

> 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.
