Hmm, I actually thought you were joking. I'll split it.

As I mentioned in
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-242?focusedCommentId=12746188&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#action_12746188
I don't see how this ticket is at all related to the decoratedKey refactor.

> Two tickets currently depend on being able to deterministically split a Range
> object into two "even" Ranges.
> This can be accomplished with RandomPartitioner/BigIntegerToken by taking the
> average of the tokens, but the OrderPreservingPartitioner/StringToken
> implementation uses a Java Collator to define the sort order of Tokens, which
> means that they are not necessarily sorted in byte/char order.
> Collator.getCollationKey(String).toByteArray() gets you a sortable byte
> array, but there is no publicly accessible API for converting a similar byte
> array back into a String.
