Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-48:
-----------------------------------------
Sandeep: you're right, timestamp is better here.
Jun: I don't think we need to do anything special -- we already have code to
handle saying "i want to block for N replicas before calling the write a
success." that could work here unchanged.

> 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.
