>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5370
>             Project: HBase
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>            Reporter: Lars Hofhansl
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Currently it does not seem to be possible to set value on a table's HTableDescriptor (either on creation or afterwards).
> The syntax I have in mind is something like:
> create {NAME=>'table', 'somekey'=>'somevalue'}, 'column'
> In analogy to how we allow a column to either a string ('column') or an association {NAME=>'column', ...}
> alter would be changed to allow setting arbitrary values.
