some feedback on R
> Cleanup HTable public interface

> Key: HBASE-10602
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10602
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Client, Usability
> Reporter: Nick Dimiduk

> HBASE-6580 replaced the preferred means of HTableInterface acquisition to the
> HConnection#getTable factory methods. HBASE-9117 removes the HConnection
> cache, placing the burden of responsible connection cleanup on whomever
> acquires it.
> The remaining HTable constructors use a Connection instance and manage their
> own HConnection on the callers behalf. This is convenient but also a
> surprising source of poor performance for anyone accustomed to the previous
> connection caching behavior. I propose deprecating those remaining
> constructors for 0.98/0.96 and removing them for 1.0.
> While I'm at it, I suggest we pursue some API hygiene in general and convert
> HTable into an interface. I'm sure there are method overloads for accepting
> String/byte[]/TableName where just TableName is sufficient. Can that be done
> for 1.0 as well?
