> But the Table#append and #increment can handle the null result...that is an
> inconsistent behavior for user.
> I have noticed two scenarios that server will return null result to user.
> # postAppend/postIncrement return null
> # mutation.isReturnResults() is false and
> preIncrementAfterRowLock/preAppendAfterRowLock doesn't return null
> We should wrap the null to empty result on server side. CP user should throw
> Exception rather than return null if they intend to say something is broken.
