Description

There is excellent documentation for how to use the Filter Language (including examples!), implemented in HBASE-4176. Unfortunately, it's hidden as the only section in the otherwise empty Thrift chapter. I suggest it be moved to it's own appendix and referenced by all the places that expose it (currently just Thrift and the Shell, eventually REST – pending completion of HBASE-5417).
