Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-2352:
-------------------------------------------
We have separate checks in ThriftValidation for name.remaining() != 0.
I'm guessing this is to make it easier to do slicing, where empty start is
valid?
> zero-length strings should result in zero-length ByteBuffers
