Jun Rao commented on CASSANDRA-48:
----------------------------------
We have to be careful about the semantic of test-and-set insert. What happens
if the condition is met at some, but not all replicas? If we want to fail the
insert in this case, we need to be able to roll back the insert at some
replicas.

> Atomic test-and-set insert operation would be nice: "set value to X but only
> if the current value is still Y." This allows a sort of optimistic
> consistency: perform a GET, then perform test-and-set with the value of that
> GET as Y.
> I do not think that this requires strong consistency to be useful.
