[jira] Created: (HBASE-2609) Make Delete API look like Get API

Make Delete API look like Get API
---------------------------------

                 Key: HBASE-2609
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2609
             Project: Hadoop HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: client
            Reporter: Jeff Hammerbacher


In my work on HBASE-2400, implementing deletes for the Avro server felt quite awkward. Rather than the clean API of the Get object, which allows restrictions on the result set from a row to be expressed with addColumn, addFamily, setTimeStamp, setTimeRange, setMaxVersions, and setFilters, the Delete object hides these semantics behind various constructors to deleteColumn[s] an deleteFamily. From my naive vantage point, I see no reason why it would be a bad idea to mimic the Get API exactly, though I could quite possibly be missing something. Thoughts?
