@Jim this patch was not about removing all classes that accept Text parameters. Rather it was about presenting a more streamlined interface in class HTable for use by clients.

So all it does is deprecate the Text classes from class HTable and makes sure that those methods are not referenced anywhere else in the codebase. If you would like to remove all of the Text methods from all classes that is something else entirely and is not what this patch does.

I understand the javadoc problems and that was something that I overlooked. I will check it out now.
