Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-7458:
-------------------------------------------

1. Let's start with just indexing a single column.  We can worry about the 
other when we start adding compound indexes in the non-functional case. :)

2. I'm okay with just accepting a single index per column if that simplifies 
implementation a great deal, but that's a limitation we'll want to lift sooner 
than later.

> Indexing information derived from the row can be powerful.  For example, 
> using the hypothetical {{extract_date}} function,
> {code}
> create table ticks (
>     symbol text,
>     ticked_at datetime,
>     price int,
>     tags set<text>,
>     PRIMARY KEY (symbol, ticked_at)
> );
> CREATE INDEX ticks_by_day ON ticks(extract_date(ticked_at));
> {code}
