Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-1654:
-------------------------------------------

(imo the most straightforward way to spread dc+rack via gossip is to add a 
ApplicationState.LOCATION state.)

> This will be a snitch extending AbstractNetworkTopologySnitch that pulls DC 
> from instance metadata placement_availability_zone.
> I don't think we can get rack information so the choice is between picking 
> something unique-per-machine to be the rack or assigning everything in the DC 
> the same rack.  Second seems easier, so let's use placement_availability_zone 
> for rack, too.
