Bryan Duxbury resolved HADOOP-2243.
-----------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

The more I think about it, this issue doesn't work out as well as we'd like, since it's just so difficult to answer the question of whether a row exists under any cells in HBase cheaply. As such, I think that we should close the issue for now leaving things exactly the way they are. An empty map may or may not mean that the row doesn't exist. If you rely on row existence, you need to get all the cells back and check yourself.
