> On region split, the region's daughter is always opened by the same region
> server hosting the parent region. In some cases this is not ideal:
> This feature was mainly needed for favored nodes to allow for more freedom
> when selecting favored nodes for daughter regions. ie The daughter doesn't
> have to always select the regionserver hosting the split as a favored node
> which should allow for better favored node distribution.
> Though this feature is actually useful in cases where region splits occur
> much more often than the balancer is run. It also is a bit more efficient as
> the major compaction that occurs after daughter assignment does not go to
> waste (ie cancelled half-way, loss of locality due to move, etc). We actually
> run it this way in some of our clusters even without favored nodes enabled.
> Hence I am supplying a patch which is independent of favored nodes.
