Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-10127:
---------------------------------------
What I meant is that maybe we don't need this in 0.94 either -> either the
balancer already balances by table, or this command is a no-op anyway
Only if there is a specific issue with the balancer not doing the right thing
should either fix the specific problem or have this as a crutch.

> HMaster provides a rpc interface : 'balance()' to balance all the regions
> among region servers in the cluster. Sometimes, we might want to balance all
> the regions belonging to a table while keeping the region assignments of
> other tables. This demand may reveal in a shared cluster where we want to
> balance regions for one application's table without affecting other
> applications. Therefore, will it be useful if we extend the current
> 'balance()' interface to only balance regions of the same table?
