---------------------------------------

033 /**
034 * Intended only for the project(s) specified in the annotation.
035 * For example, "Common", "HDFS", "MapReduce", "ZooKeeper", "HBase".

bq. IMHO, any code that touches or leaks into a user application must be
@IntefaceAudience.Public, including client classes, their parameter interfaces,
and their returned interfaces, exceptions we bubble up, filters, and whatever
coprocessor interfaces are necessary to support endpoints (I don't recall what
those are off the top of my head). Am I missing anything else for this list?
@IntefaceAudience.LimitedPrivate makes sense for observer coprocessors, master
plugins, and any interface who's implementation can be overridden by
configuration.
I think this is basically right there are places we need to put some walls up.
(hence why I'm looking for a dependency tool -- if I don't find one I'm going
to end up build a big nasty postit graph).
