> If you pass an invalid tableId (or in my case tableName instead of tableId) TabletLocator won't complain.
> TabletLocator tabletLocator = TabletLocator.getInstance(instance, new Text(tableId));
> Next if you use the returned tabletLocator to locate a tablet it just returns an empty list, never complaining that the tableId was invalid:
> TabletLocator.TabletLocation tabletLocation = tabletLocator.locateTablet(rowKey.getText(), false, false, credentials.toThrift());
> Ideally TabletLocator.getInstance() should guard against invalid/non-existing tableIds.
