Dave Marion commented on ACCUMULO-1399:
---------------------------------------

{quote}
The shell was originally designed to support pluggable commands. However, it 
was decided against making this a user-facing feature because of the confusion 
it might cause distinguishing between "official" features, and commands users 
might grow accustomed to on a particular customized installation (and because 
nobody had much interest in maintaining other users' commands that behave 
badly).

since this was already thought of and decided against, should I abandon this 
idea? I'm thinking the answer might be yes, based on the above comment and the 
move to a CLI.

> Proposing modification to the Shell to allow applications to create their own 
> set of commands. This might be accomplished using java.util.ServiceLoader or 
> something like it. Specifically, I'm thinking of a case where I have a create 
> table command that is different than the one provided by the Shell. In my 
> case, my create table command may create one or more tables and setup 
> iterators on them.
