Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-9136:
---------------------------------------

Why can't we have different codecs set up for the client and server side (by 
configuration)? Seems generally useful. Putting flags in a monolithic codec 
produces a result limited to whatever we hardcode the codec to do when dealing 
with the flags. It's a lot more flexible to be able to swap in and out codecs 
on the client and server side.

> We should have a provision such that the codec on the server side could be 
> different from the one on the client side.  This would help to remove the 
> tags for security usecases.  
> This JIRA is aimed to provide that capability in the codec itself.
