[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-13502) Deprecate/remove getRowComparator() in TableName

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-13502?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14503344#comment-14503344 ] 

stack commented on HBASE-13502:
-------------------------------

This method is used internally doing meta lookups only. Its use externally could only be perverse (why would anyone 'trust' a Cell row comparator from the basic TableName class)?

Our semvar talks of 'evolving' only being compatible across patch versions when API is server-side, not client-side. We should clean this up.

How hard to deprecate and just keep KVComparator for another major version? Are there other places it bubbles up into a public API?
