"safe mode" for nodes so that they do not participate in reads until hinted 
handoff is complete

                 Key: CASSANDRA-768
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-768
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Robert Coli
            Priority: Minor


Summary :

When using ConsistencyLevel.ONE for read performance reasons, stale data can be 
served by a node which has been temporarily unavailable. When a node has been 
unavailable for some time and other nodes have queued updates for it via hinted 
handoff, it would be operationally useful to be able to configure the node to 
not participate in read traffic until the hinted handoff process is complete. A 
"safe mode" would offer operators a greater consistency guarantee across all 
nodes without the per-read performance tradeoff of a higher ConsistencyLevel. 
This "safe mode" concept might also be applicable to nodes undergoing "repair" 
processes, for example in the case of on-disk data corruption or loss.
