Get cells via shell with a time range predicate
-----------------------------------------------

                 Key: HBASE-3729
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3729
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: shell
            Reporter: Eric Charles


HBase shell allows to specify a timestamp to get a value
- get 't1', 'r1', {COLUMN => 'c1', TIMESTAMP => ts1}

If you don't give the exact timestamp, you get nothing... so it's difficult to 
get the cell previous versions.

It would be fine to have a "time range" predicate based get.
The shell syntax could be (depending on technical feasibility)
- get 't1', 'r1', {COLUMN => 'c1', TIMERANGE => (start_timestamp, 
end_timestamp)}
