If you understand how cql collections are written you can decode them and
work with them from thrift. It's quite a chore and i would not suggest
trying yo do it however.
(I suspect tyler tried it and jonathan broke his hand jk)
There is a perl cassandra driver that did something like this.

Thrift.
Doesn't make sense, since Thrift is all about the raw data cells, and
collections are an abstraction layer on top of that.
