Thanks for the noticing @bbeaudreault I think we can introduce a constant **UNKNOWN_SIZE** with type of Size and value of 1 byte to distinguish between having no data and not knowing the specific size. Another important reason for greater than 0 is as I mentioned in HBASE-28399, some computing engines will automatically prune empty partitions, if 0 is returned for in-transition regions, data may be lost. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
