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.
