stack commented on HBASE-19112:
-------------------------------
bq. The type of cells for normal scan (i.e non-raw scan) is always PUT type.
This is obvious now you state it but yeah, good one. It is an argument for
deprecating getType in Cell. (I see where you are coming from [~chia7712] now
with RawScan returning RawCells).
You make a good argument [~chia7712] of a Type per Audience type.
Its too late to add in a RawCell? Don't you think? Over in HBASE-19092, if a CP
wants access to Tags, suggestion is cast to ExtendedCell. What you think
[~chia7712]?
That means in this issue we deprecate
# getTypeByte (Already deprecated in favor of CellUtil#isDelete)
# getSequenceId
# getTagsXXX
> Suspect methods on Cell to be deprecated

> that we have some methods on Cell which should be deprecated for removal:
> * {{#getType()}}
> * {{#getTimestamp()}}
> * {{#getTag()}}
> * {{#getSequenceId()}}
> Let's make a pass over these (and maybe the rest) to make sure that there
> aren't others which are either implementation details or methods returning
> now-private-marked classes.
