Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-6427:
---------------------------------------
We don't want to just yank out CP APIs, but a liberal attitude toward
deprecating and removing them is fine IMO. The contract is different than with
a public API. Furthermore, the interfaces haven't gelled yet. We're just
starting to get interesting use cases.

> When implementing higher level stores on top of HBase it is necessary to
> allow dynamic control over how long KVs must be kept around.
> Semi-static config options for ColumnFamilies (# of version or TTL) is not
> sufficient.
> This can be done with a few additional coprocessor hooks, or by makeing
> Store.ScanInfo pluggable.

> The simplest way to achieve this is to have a pluggable class to determine
> the smallestReadpoint for Region. That way outside code can control what KVs
