> Below is an excerpt from snapshot restore javadoc:
> {code}
>    * Restore the specified snapshot on the original table. (The table must be disabled)
>    * Before restoring the table, a new snapshot with the current table state is created.
>    * In case of failure, the table will be rolled back to the its original state.
> {code}
> We can improve the handling of rollbackSnapshot in two ways:
> 1. give better name to the rollbackSnapshot (adding {code}'-for-rollback-'{code}). Currently the name is of the form:
>     String rollbackSnapshot = snapshotName + "-" + EnvironmentEdgeManager.currentTimeMillis();
> 2. drop rollbackSnapshot at the end of restoreSnapshot() if the restore is successful. We can introduce new config param, named 'hbase.snapshot.restore.drop.rollback', to keep compatibility with current behavior.
