Istvan Toth commented on HBASE-26817:
-------------------------------------
I think that the an important point of these annotations is to track what kind
of consequences changing them has on users or downstream projects.
Based on this, I agree that parent classes shouldn't be less permissive than
any of their children.
I don't have firm opinion on the other direction.

> {{RpcExecutor}}, an abstract base class, is marked as {{IA.Private}}.
> However, it has several subclasses that are marked as
> {{IA.LimitedPrivate(COPROC, PHOENIX)}}. I think that the base class needs to
> match the highest exposure level of any of its subclasses.
