Christopher Tubbs resolved ACCUMULO-2439.
-----------------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix

I'm closing this issue (and the related open review) as "Won't Fix" for now. The consensus from the lengthy [mailing list discussion|http://apache-accumulo.1065345.n5.nabble.com/quot-NOT-quot-operator-in-visibility-string-td7949.html] appears to be against this feature (at least, in the current form).

To revisit this, please open further discussion on the dev@accumulo.apache.org mailing list.

> This patch adds a NOT "!" operator to ColumnVisibility.
> The syntax is as follows:
> !a
> (!a)&(!b)
> a&(!b)
> a&(!(b|c))
> Because of the nature of the current visibility parsing algorithm the additional parentheses are required.
> In the shell, the "\!" requires escaping. This is due to how JLine parses the command and attempts to substitute "!" with history.
