Description

The Java API for synchronous iteration is currently a little more complicated than it might need to be, at least for the simple use case. Right now a KuduScanner is an iterator over RowResultIterator iterators, which then need to be iterated over to produce RowResult objects. I expect many users of this synchronous API would prefer an API that hides the intermediate RowResultIterator, like here. Could we get something like this in the API?
