----------------------------------------

This bug also manifests in that the "$" entry for cells must be last.

> This issue only happens when doing a Multi-put using the REST interface and with the JSON data format.
> The bug is that the "key" entry must come before the "Cell" entry.  The "key" entry order shouldn't matter.  If it doesn't come first, the REST interface won't find the key and will use the URL's key over and over.  For example, if the row key in the URL is "fakekey", then every cell would be added to the same row despite the key being in the JSON.
> Here is the workaround in Python:
> 	cell = OrderedDict([
> 		("key", rowKeyEncoded),
> 		("Cell", 
> 		[
> 			{ "column" : messagecolumnencoded, "$" : line },
> 			{ "column" : usernamecolumnencoded, "$" : usernameEncoded },
> 			{ "column" : linenumbercolumnencoded, "$" : lineNumberEncoded },
> 		])
> 	])
