Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-8303:
----------------------------------------------

bq. Authorization is about allowing configurable limits on what people can and 
cannot do and UNPREPARED_STATEMENTS fits that as much as any other restriction 
we're discussing here as far as I can tell.

IMO authorization is about limiting access to resources (tables and functions). 
Adding limits on different ways to access them (filtering, indexes, multigets, 
batches) is a stretch and a hack, but I'm willing to let it happen, simply 
because of their destructive potential. Prepared vs. unprepared is almost a 
protocol level detail, is not a distinction that the authorization subsystem 
should ever be aware of.

That there was a conceptual issue. I also highly doubt the usefulness of it - 
non-prepared statements don't have a destructive potential, and you often want 
to use them (from cqlsh, for one, and for one-off queries that you don't reuse 
anyway).

So to me it both doesn't fit conceptually and is rather useless in itself.

> Please provide a "strict mode" option in cassandra that will kick out any CQL 
> queries that are expensive, e.g. any query with ALLOWS FILTERING, 
> multi-partition queries, secondary index queries, etc.
