Dan Burkert commented on KUDU-1306:
-----------------------------------

The non-covering range partitioning work is starting to land, and we don't have 
a story around forwards compatibility.  Old clients (0.9 and below) will not be 
able to use a non-covered range partition without entering an RPC loop.  We 
need to figure out if this is worth fixing.  The obvious fix of adding a flag 
to the {{GetTableLocations}} RPC to specify whether a client can support 
non-covered range partitions will not work, since the old clients enter an RPC 
loop when the {{GetTableLocations}} RPC fails.  Having the master track which 
tables have non-covered range partitions and failing during {{GetTableSchema}} 
may work.
