Karan Mehta commented on HBASE-18228:
-------------------------------------

[~lhofhansl] A patch was attempted for this JIRA. However it doesn't seem as useful as expected. Would you mind to discuss other potential improvements here?
FYI, this issue is specifically addressing branch-1.3 (possibly 1.4).

> We just had a prod issue and running HBCK the way we did actually causes more problems.
> In part HBCK did stuff we did not expect, in part we had little visibility into what HBCK was doing, and in part the logging was confusing.
> I'm proposing 2 improvements:
> 1. A dry-run mode. Run, and just list what would have been done.
> 2. An interactive mode. Run, and for each action request Y/N user input. So that a user can opt-out of stuff.
