Carter commented on HBASE-11826:
--------------------------------
First question about this refactor: _Deprecate the old methods or remove them
entirely?_
One the one hand, deprecating them makes it easier for someone to move
seamlessly to the new interface. On the other hand, this might muddy the new
interface on day one. If a user is already putting in the effort to move to
the new interface, shouldn't they just clean up these method calls at the same
time?
Thoughts?
> Split each tableOrRegionName admin methods into two targetted methods
