Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-1599:
-------------------------------------------

This is sort of along the lines of what I was thinking, although I think just 
adding a ColumnFamily index type would be adequate to distinguish it.

{code}
column families which are sorted by the index value
{code}

This is the hard part, I am having trouble wrapping my mind around a scheme 
that allows both different sort orders in different CFs and always routes 
things correctly by node token no matter which CF you are talking about.

{code}
which are queried using get_range_slices
{code}

As suggested by "adding a CF index type" I think using the same index query api 
makes more sense.

> Add sort/order support for secondary indexing

> For a lot of users paging is a standard use case on many web applications.  
> It would be nice to allow paging as part of a Boolean Expression.
> Page -> start index
>            -> end index
>            -> page timestamp 
>            -> Sort Order
> When sorting, is it possible to sort both ASC and DESC?
