Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This came up in the release blockers meeting on 10/31.
There exists the
storage.mvcc.range_tombstones.enabled
cluster, controlling whether or not we write range tombstones (to enable various MVCC bulk ops enhancements). By default this cluster setting is off.Ideally, no-one should be toggling this flag unless they know what to expect, and what to monitor.
Describe the solution you'd like
Make the documentation abundantly clear that this cluster setting should be treated as "internal only".
