Esteban Gutierrez commented on HBASE-12447:
-------------------------------------------
[~mbertozzi] Added the new method in Scan since it was odd not having support
to pass a TimeRange as an argument. Probably tooling is the onIy one that will
use but I can remove if you think it might cause some confusion.

why CellCounter can't do the exact same thing as CopyTable is doing?

Yeah, CellCounter needs to be rewritten to be consistent with other MR tools we
have. I think the main problem with CellCounter is that it relies on the
position for the options from the command line and for instance modifiers like
separator string need to be on a fixed. I will open a new JIRA to clean up the
command line option parsing for CellCounter.
> Add support for setTimeRange for RowCounter and CellCounter

> It would be nice to count the rows/cells also for a time range. Copy Table
> already supports that.
