Nick Dimiduk commented on HBASE-8593:
-------------------------------------
I want to extend the standard tools with transformation operations -- the job
is iterating the entier dataset anyway, they should be able to transform,
filter, &c in the process. We already sort of half support this kind of feature
with things like column renames; it should be extended to the general case.

> Now the ImportTSV tool treats all the table column to be of type String. It
> converts the input data into bytes considering its type to be String. Some
> times user will need a type of say int/float to get added to table by using
> this tool.
