stack commented on HADOOP-2339:
-------------------------------
One question: What happens if user specifies a column name that is not a column family? I suppose in this case we should delete all cells for the specified column? Also, I wonder if 'delete b: from udanax' shouldn't just delete column content rather than actual column itself: i.e. disable, remove, readd, re-enable?
