Can you talk a little about this. I thought the examples I posted showed we
could be backwards compatibile by adding an optional paramter (htable would be
treated in a very similar manner).

Essentially we need to keep the "HTable(byte[] tableName, Configuration
config)" constructor. The current implementation would assume a table is part
of the default namespace if only the table name is provided.
Apart from potentially confusing our users. Do you have any other concerns
against supporting a fully-qualified table name?
