Jonathan Hsieh commented on HBASE-10460:
----------------------------------------
I think this should be in 0.98. Here are my two best reasons:
* This patch is a "simple best effort fix" (as [~lhofhansl] mentioned) and the
current implementation seems to be a going out of the way to break things. I
don't see how it this one is an API cleanup (in Java convention, setters return
void) and is seems to be a gratuitous compat breaking change that is easy low
risk fix.
* This method is in a class marked InterfaceAudience.Public and
InterfaceStability.Stable. [1] If this were marked
InterfaceStability.Evolving I'd be ok with the "won't do" resolution but
because it is Stable we should keep this around. and allow this patch in 0.98.
