> A few of us were chatting yesterday.  If two edits go into hbase with same r/c/ts and they both go into the same memcache instance -- i.e. there has not been a flush between additions -- then the last insert will overwrite any added earlier (edits go into a Map).  That seems fine to me (what others think?).  But if a flush happens in between edits, hbase gives back different answers.  Here's how.
> Each instance of a cell is treated as a 'version', even if same r/c/ts.  If you ask for N > 1 versions, and if two cells of same r/c/ts, only there has been a flush between their additions, you'll get back two versions with same r/c/ts.  If no flush between their upload, you'll get back one version only because the later overrode the former.
> This issue is about closing this hole.  Suppress same r/c/ts when returning 'versions'.
