> In some of my code i found it efficient to create a new table without immediately requiring (blocking for) the client to have references to it's HRegions.  Effectively this requires that the client update the table info only as needed.
> Can something like the following method to HClient be added?
> /**
> 	 * Creates a new table but does not block and wait for it to come online.
> 	 * 
> 	 * @param desc -
> 	 *            table descriptor for table
> 	 * 
> 	 * @throws IllegalArgumentException -
> 	 *             if the table name is reserved
> 	 * @throws MasterNotRunningException -
> 	 *             if master is not running
> 	 * @throws NoServerForRegionException -
> 	 *             if root region is not being served
> 	 * @throws IOException
> 	 */
> 	public synchronized void createTableAsync(HTableDescriptor desc)
> 			throws IOException {
> 		checkReservedTableName(desc.getName());
> 		checkMaster();
> 		try {
> 			this.master.createTable(desc);
> 		} catch (RemoteException e) {
> 			handleRemoteException(e);
> 		}
> 	}
> which is basically the same as createTable() except without the findServersForTable(desc.getName())  part.
