> Here are some nice-to-have admin functions that would sit nicely in hbase shell:
> +  public void addColumn(Text tableName, HColumnDescriptor column) throws IOException;
> +  public void deleteColumn(Text tableName, Text columnName) throws IOException;
> +  
> +  public void enableTable(Text tableName) throws IOException;
> +  public void disableTable(Text tableName) throws IOException;
> (To add/delete columns you must first disable the table and then reenable it).
> Other possibles:
> +  public void mergeRegions(Text regionName1, Text regionName2) throws IOException;
> + Allow specification of basic row filtering (Doesn't have to be exotic): regex match, upper limit on rows returned.
> + Allow changing versions on column families, enabling/disabling compression, bloom filters
