Hi, [~vrodionov]

Yes, that is PIT restore. 
But you can define your own 'overwrite'.  
We can leave to the user to clean and then restore.  Or we can clean as part of 
the restore.
In the database world, there are different support and choices from different 
vendors.  For example, this is for DB2.

The compact before restore won't work for PIT, because HBase can have multiple 
versions for the cell.  So if the restore puts back the older version, the 
newer version will still be effective.

> Backup - Delete- Restore does not restore deleted data

> This was discovered during testing. If we delete row after full backup and 
> perform immediately restore, the deleted row still remains deleted.
