James Taylor commented on HBASE-12972:
--------------------------------------

I think this change benefits not just Phoenix, but any application using these 
coprocessor interfaces.

As far as the Phoenix code base, the coprocessors classes are pretty isolated 
and do not change very often. They're used more as entry points that invoke 
common core classes (which is where the bulk of changes occur). I don't think 
the burden would be high if Phoenix had to have another branch.

> Region, a supportable public/evolving subset of HRegion

> {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).
