kevin su commented on HBASE-22108:
----------------------------------

maybe we could add moveRandom(byte[] encodedRegionName) method in Admin
btw, there is split(TableName tableName) method, user don't need to pass null.

> Avoid passing null in Admin methods

> For some methods we must pass null if we want specific behaviors, for 
> example, move region to a random server, split region without providing an 
> explicit split point, etc.
> We should provide methods without some parameters so user do not need to pass 
> null.
> So in the future users do not need to guess whether a method accept null 
> parameters, the answer is always no.
