> In order to avoid rebuilding indexes when no columns are actually indexed
> (originally implemented in CASSANDRA-9196), CASSANDRA-9281 hinted at
> overriding {{SecondaryIndex#getColumnDefs}} to "filter out" indexes that
> shouldn't be rebuilt; unfortunately, I believe this would be quite wrong for
> safety reasons, as it could have side effects on other methods relying on
> {{getColumnDefs}} returning a stable set, and API consistency ones, as it
> would be confusing to have {{getColumnDefs}} behave differently based on
> runtime conditions, possibly ignoring {{addColumnDef}} calls.
> I believe {{SecondaryIndex#indexes}} is still the best candidate to act as a
> filter predicate, and I propose to overload it to accept a column definition
> for all those cases (i.e. index rebuilding) missing a full cell name.
