 * Convenience class that simply writes all values (which must be

 * {@link org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.Delete Delete} instances)
 * passed to it out to the configured HBase table. This works in combination
 * with {@link TableOutputFormat} which actually does the writing to HBase.<p>
 *
 * Keys are passed along but ignored in TableOutputFormat.  However, they can
 * be used to control how your values will be divided up amongst the specified
 * number of reducers. <p>
 *
 * You can also use the {@link TableMapReduceUtil} class to set up the two
 * classes in one step:
 * <blockquote><code>
 * TableMapReduceUtil.initTableReducerJob("table", IdentityTableReducer.class, job);
 * </code></blockquote>
 * This will also set the proper {@link TableOutputFormat} which is given the
 * <code>table</code> parameter. The
 * {@link org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.Put Put} or
 * {@link org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.Delete Delete} define the
 * row and columns implicitly.
