I'd like to see old clients keep working though meta has split under them.
Perhaps the serverName in the MetaRegionServer znode proxies requests when the
region asked for is named 'hbase:meta,,1.1588230740' to actual meta table whose
regions could be elsewhere on the cluster. I suppose 'hbase:meta,,1.1588230740'
would have to be the old ROOT too?

Oh interesting idea. How about instead of proxying when a requests for meta
hits the RS with the ROOT region, we could throw a RegionMovedException to
redirect the client to the proper meta region RS . On the RS holding the meta
region we translate the 'hbase:meta,,1.1588230740' region info to the
appropriate meta region info if split. This way we can avoid proxying which
seems to make things a bit more complicated?

Lets do a one-pager.

Sounds good.
