Jonathan Hsieh commented on HBASE-8461:
---------------------------------------
In the delete tables case, you must explicitly disable the table before you can
delete it. With snapshots there is no similar safeguard. If it is in jruby we
can do so interactively.
> Provide the ability to delete multiple snapshots through single command
