Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-11230:
----------------------------------------

I would even suggest doing this in 0.98 except we promised no incompatible client API changes after .0

> The javadoc for HTable#getRowOrBefore says:
> {code}
>    * @deprecated As of version 0.92 this method is deprecated without
>    * replacement.   
>    * getRowOrBefore is used internally to find entries in hbase:meta and makes
>    * various assumptions about the table (which are true for hbase:meta but not
>    * in general) to be efficient.
> {code}
> It's been deprecated long enough. We should remove it from the client API and mark it as private.
