Michael Greene commented on CASSANDRA-296:
------------------------------------------

-1 for now.  HBase manages to use binary keys in their shell, I don't see how 
either of those referenced issues explicitly prohibit CQL or the CLI.  
HBASE-1363 and HBASE-1509 are relevant, but even beyond the treatment of byte[] 
arrays, isn't it /most/ likely that the byte[]s are UTF-8 and we can optimize 
for that case?

> I don't see a way to support binary column names in CQL once CASSANDRA-185

> The obvious solution to me is to get rid of CQL.
> (This conflicts with CASSANDRA-289 -- we do want _some_ way to query the db 
> from the cli.)
