Fix Version/s: (was: 2.0.0)
> Allow users to have Custom tags on Cells
> ----------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-16706
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-16706
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Anoop Sam John
> Assignee: Anoop Sam John
> Priority: Major
>
> The Codec based strip of tags was done as a temp solution not to pass the
> critical system tags from server back to client. This also imposes the
> limitation that Tags can not be used by users. Tags are a system side feature
> alone. In the past there were some Qs in user@ for using custom tags.
> We should allow users to set tags on Cell and pass them while write. Also
> these custom tags must be returned back to users (Irrespective of codec and
> all). The system tags (like ACL, visibility) should not get transferred btw
> client and server. And when the client is run by a super user, we should pass
> all tags (including system tags). This way we can make sure that all tags are
> passed while replication and also tool like Export gets all tags.
