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

Yeah, I mean doing compareTo... Add tests to the testHStoreKey method that take the messy meta keys.

> We currently have a problem the way we design .META. row keys. When user table row keys begin with characters lesser than ',' like a '$', any operation will fail when:
> - A client has a certain set of regions in cache
> - One region with the faulty row key splits 
> - The client receives a request for a row in the split region
> The reason is that it will first get a NSRE then it will try to locate a region using the passed row key. For example: 
> Row in META: entities,,1216750777411
> Row passed: entities,$-94f9386f-e235-4cbd-aacc-37210a870991,99999999999999
> The passed row is lesser then the row in .META.
