--------------------------------------

+1 on your plan. How about we start with a patch for the short-term workaround?

> Current secondary index update could trigger chained region server failures. This isn't friendly to end-users. Even we disable index after index update failures before aborting, it will involve lot of human involvement because index update failure isn't a rare situation.
> In this JIRA, I propose a 2PC like protocol. The "like" means it's a not a real 2PC because no infinitely blocking but it requires read time(query) to reconcile inconsistence between index and data. Since I'm not familiar with the query time logic, please let me know if the proposal could fly.
> Thanks.
