Nick Dimiduk commented on HBASE-10536:
--------------------------------------
bq. Maybe someone will want to load all what can be loaded, and deal with the
errors afterward.
Isn't bulkloading generally considered an "atomic" operation? I think allowing
a partial load is not ideal default behavior. If you want to allow partial
load, I'd prefer a "--no-strict" flag instead.
