> The update column family operation in REST interface will overwrite the default metadata using the default value which is unexpected.  
> We should use the column family to get the old value and then do update if requested by the users.  
> Also, for non-default metadata value, such as "hbase.hregion.majorcompaction", we should still be enable to create/update it using REST interface.
> For RowHandler, the user can request with offset and limit and get the rows.
