[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-995) Allow alter of catalog tables; currently fails because columnfamily is 'illegal'

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-995?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13178232#comment-13178232 ] 

Harsh J commented on HBASE-995:
-------------------------------

Stack, do you also recall what was the drive behind having such a functionality, given that we usually do not mess with the catalog tables?

> Turns out this ain't easy.  The .META. schema is hard-coded.  Moving it out of 0.19.0.
