Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-12972:
----------------------------------------
This absolutely must go into branch-1 for 1.1+. Omitting coprocessor API
changes would completely defeat the purpose of the work, might as well resolve
as Won't Fix. This isn't about causing "pain" or not, this is about an existing
coprocessor application using _unsupportable_ internal APIs. I would think
Phoenix and everybody else would welcome supportable APIs at the earliest
possible convenience. Why is this only coming up now? Have I been wasting my
time for two weeks?
Any thoughts here [~jamestaylor]?

> {quote}
> Maybe we can have a {{Region}} interface that is to {{HRegion}} is what
> {{Store}} is to {{HStore}}. Store marked with {{@InterfaceAudience.Private}}
> but used in some coprocessor hooks.
> {quote}
> By example, now coprocessors have to reach into HRegion in order to
> participate in row and region locking protocols, this is one area where the
> functionality is legitimate for coprocessors but not for users, so an
> in-between interface make sense.
> In addition we should promote {{Store}}'s interface audience to
> LimitedPrivate(COPROC).
