> I'm no longer sure about the expected behavior when using an empty row key
> (e.g. a 0-byte long byte array). I assumed that this was a legitimate row
> key, just like having an empty column qualifier is allowed. But it seems
> that the RegionServer considers the empty row key to be whatever the first
> row key is.
> {code}
> Version: 0.89.20100830, r0da2890b242584a8a5648d83532742ca7243346b, Sat Sep 18

> This isn't a parsing problem with the command-line of the shell. I can
> reproduce this behavior both with plain Java code and with my asynchbase
> client.
> Since I don't actually have a row with an empty row key, I expected that the
> first {{get}} would return nothing.
