stack commented on HBASE-795:
-----------------------------

This is a nice patch.  Applies fine.  I took it for a spin doing the prescription outlined above.  All works nicely.   Only issues I see is what if there exists already a table named 'tables' and the lack of documentation of REST in general (not your fault).  

Maybe you should rename the 'tables' switch to be a name you know is illegal as a legit tablename: e.g. _tables or some such (See HTableDescriptor.isLegalTableName for rules).

Meantime, I'm going to apply this since it adds nice functionality.  If you get a chance, add package doc. to REST, if only to point back at the wiki page, and fix the 'tables' issue if you come up w/ an idea better than mine above.

> In the current implementation, only the metadata query of table allowed. It's not convinent to use the REST interface to write a third-party client library. I think the functionality of REST interface should be similar with the hbase shell. So user can create/show/update/delate/enable/disable the table.
