Jesse Yates commented on HBASE-7999:
------------------------------------

I'd argue that we should still reserve a system namespace (the same is already 
discussed in HBASE-8015), so keeping these special system labels around isn't 
all that far fetched. The actual list table rpc would change, but other than 
that much of the higher-level things would remain very similar (e.g. ui, shell, 
etc) to support the system tooling separate from the regular namespace (to help 
avoid accidental changes to internal tables)

> System tables are necessary as we start moving towards other internally 
> scoped uses for tables (already we have a similar paradigm with the ACL table 
> in the security stuff). This allows things like an statistics table, a 
> secondary index table, moving replication queues out of ZK - just to name a 
> couple of things that have come up.
> The first use-case would be HBASE-7958 where we would want to support a 
> system level statistics table.
