Nick Dimiduk commented on HBASE-13271:
--------------------------------------

That sounds like a mistake, BufferedMutator is intended to be a @Public interface.

>    Affects Versions: 1.0.0

> Another API issue found by [~larsgeorge]:
> "Table.put(List<Put) is questionable after the API change."
> {code}
> [Mar-17 9:21 AM] Lars George: Table.put(List<Put>) is weird since you cannot flush partial lists
> [Mar-17 9:21 AM] Lars George: Say out of 5 the third is broken, then the put() call returns with a local exception (say empty Put) and then you have 2 that are in the buffer
> [Mar-17 9:21 AM] Lars George: but how to you force commit them?
> [Mar-17 9:22 AM] Lars George: In the past you would call flushCache(), but that is "gone" now
> [Mar-17 9:22 AM] Lars George: and flush() is not available on a Table
> [Mar-17 9:22 AM] Lars George: And you cannot access the underlying BufferedMutation neither
> [Mar-17 9:23 AM] Lars George: You can *only* add more Puts if you can, or call close()
> [Mar-17 9:23 AM] Lars George: that is just weird to explain
> {code}
> So, Table needs to get flush back or we deprecate this method or it flushes immediately and does not return until complete in the implementation.
