Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-1978:
-------------------------------------------
I don't understand what problem this is solving. "walking a randomly
partitioned cluster by token" is what hadoop does. why would you need/want to
mix keys and tokens?
> get_range_slices: allow key and token to be interoperable

> problem: get_range_slices requires two keys or two tokens, so we can't walk a
> randomly partitioned cluster by token.
> solution: allow keys and tokens to be mixed. however, if one side is a
> token, promote the bounds to a dht.Range, instead of a dht.Bounds.
