1. is temporary soln.  Its possible that the append hadoop will be
released soon.  If it happens, we should be able to get it into
Apache's repo.  On 3., take a look at how its now done.  The
HBaseTestingUtility is trying to be universal tool that lets you start
up any cluster combination, with or without HDFS.   Perhaps you can
add to HTU an API that does a spin up of hdfs under a minihbasecluster
in a way that doesn't need hadoop-test?  Is that even possible?
