keith-turner commented on issue #811: Look into adding API operation to return non existant row columns. URL: https://github.com/apache/fluo/issues/811#issuecomment-340561296 I deleted the comment I had made here because I was thinking of #527 when I wrote that comment. I copied the comment that was here to #527 and modified it a bit. I realized `setIfAbsent()` doing something similar to `delete()` would not work, so I changed that when copying. I wish I had recorded the use case I was thinking of for this operation, because I can't remember. It may be that if `setIfAbsent()` is available then there is no use case for this operation. I think it it would be good to defer this until there is a use case is identified that is not efficiently satisfied by `setIfAbsent()`
