Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-4004:
--------------------------------------

bq. Some folks I'm working with have been wanting this to make replication more 
predictive.

Definitely a nice bonus which gets around a quick of the replication impl.

bq. It should be possible to manually roll WALs so that files on 
decommissioning datanodes are closed and the decommissioning process can 
complete

[~ecn], do you have an explanation for why we even need to do this? I'd like to 
better understand why we need to change our code.
