-----------------------------------------------
Tried to checkout the KeyComparator but it ends up trickier because we are not
very sure if explicitly user has tried to set up the startkey and endkey.
Will check on this more.
> Scanning .META. with startRow and/or stopRow is not giving proper results

> This code will not return any result even if there is 10 tables with names
> starting with "d" to "w", including one table called "entry". If you comment
> the setStopRow you will get results, but will still get rows starting with
> "d" even if setStartRow is set to "e".
> Same code using with a user table is working fine.
> Facing the same issue with the shell.
> scan '.META.' , {STARTROW => 'e', LIMIT => 10} is returning rows starting by
> "d".
> scan '.META.' , {STARTROW => 'e', STOPROW => 'v', LIMIT => 10} is not
> returning anything.
