Mikhail Bautin commented on HBASE-5612:

> In many real-life applications all values in a certain column family are of a 
> certain data type, e.g. 64-bit integer. We could specify that in the column 
> descriptor and enable data type-specific compression such as variable-length 
> integer encoding.
