Ted Yu commented on HBASE-6942:
-------------------------------
An alternative, assuming Delete is passed as a parameter to BulkDeleteEndpoint,
would be to reduce DeleteType to two enum values: ROW and NON_ROW.
For NON_ROW case, the user is able to specify any combination of deletions
based on non-null row key (just a placeholder):
{code}
Delete del = new Delete(row);
del.deleteFamily(FAMILY1);
{code}
In createDeleteMutation(), we call Delete.getFamilyMap() and plug in the row
key obtained from the scanning for all KeyValue's contained in family map.

> We can provide an end point implementation for doing a bulk deletion of

> such an operation as right now it need to do a scan to client and issue
> delete(s) using rowkeys.
