stack commented on HBASE-5548:
------------------------------
Ok. Over in hbase-5840 I say I'm going to leave it in but instead I'm going to
back it out so its easier on the fellows who are trying to follow behind us
trying to make sense of our actions.

> Currently, all the commands that operate on a table in the shell first have
> to take the table as name as input.
> There are two main considerations:
> * It is annoying to have to write the table name every time, when you should
> just be able to get a reference to a table
> * the current implementation is very wasteful - it creates a new HTable for
> each call (but reuses the connection since it uses the same configuration)
> We should be able to get a handle to a single HTable and then operate on that.
