> There are about 90 classes/codes in HbaseObjectWritable currently and 
> Byte.MAX_VALUE is 127.  In addition, anyone wanting to add custom classes but 
> not break compatibility might want to leave a gap before using codes and 
> that's difficult in such limited space.
> Eventually we should get rid of this pattern that makes compatibility 
> difficult (better client/server protocol handshake) but we should probably at 
> least bump this to a short for 0.94.
