Description

You can instantiate a Filter using the REST API. For Instance, the following is the body of the POST request against the REST API  that instantiates a filter list comprised of a RowFilter and a ColumnRangeFilter:

<Scanner><filter>{"type": "FilterList", "op": "MUST_PASS_ALL", "filters": [\{"type": "RowFilter", "op": "EQUAL", "comparator": {"type": "BinaryComparator", "value": "Rm1vYy1BbGFuaW5lLU5lZ2F0aXZlLUNFLVJhbXAtRm1vYy1BbGFuaW5lIFtNLUhdLS0wMDAwMDAwMDA5NDk5"}}, \{"type": "ColumnRangeFilter", "minColumn": "MDAwNTAuMDI2OTA=", "minColumnInclusive": true, "maxColumn": "MDA1MDAuMDI2OTA=", "maxColumnInclusive": true}]}</filter></Scanner>

However, it seems impossible to do that with a MultiRowRangeFilter (using the REST API). Upon closer look, this class does not seem to appear in the ParseFilter class (hbase-client/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/filter/ParseFilter.java). It is completely missing.
