[jira] [Created] (ACCUMULO-2767) Documentation of valid Visibility Labels is wrong

Sean Busbey created ACCUMULO-2767:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Documentation of valid Visibility Labels is wrong
                 Key: ACCUMULO-2767
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-2767
             Project: Accumulo
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: docs
    Affects Versions: 1.5.1, 1.5.0, 1.6.0
            Reporter: Sean Busbey
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 1.5.2, 1.6.1, 1.7.0


The javadocs for ColumnVisibility have incorrect information

# The top level java doc refers to the ColumnVisibility(byte) constructor for details on valid expressions, even though that information move to the ColumnVisibility(String) construtor
# The docs incorrectly state that valid labels are [a-zA-Z0-9_-]+

The docs should be moved to the top of the class, because they're very important. They also need to be updated to reflect the changes in ACCUMULO-739 and ACCUMULO-241.

Finally, the section of the user manual on visibility expressions should really cover this as well. At the moment it is silent on validity of labels.
