Nicolas Spiegelberg commented on HBASE-4991:
--------------------------------------------
I agree with Todd's comments. This problem doesn't seem to be solved at the
correct layer. A more natural fit would be to add a range delete marker and
optimize the scanner code on compaction. Adding a range delete seems more
natural than an explicit region delete & can be used at the client level.
