Nicolas Spiegelberg commented on HBASE-3967:
--------------------------------------------

This jira seems to have been stalled with a working patch in tow.  Any reason?  We're currently using this for our Messaging migrations at scale.  

@stack: Any problems with a rebase, then commit?

> During bulk imports, it'll be useful to be able to do delete mutations (either to delete data that already exists in HBase or was inserted earlier during this run of the import). 
> For example, we have a use case, where we are processing a log of data which may have both inserts and deletes in the mix and we want to upload that into HBase using the bulk import mechanism.
