Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-1618:
---------------------------------------------
We'd have to use \u notation. The problem is, we can't know which comparator
to use during the parse/setup phase of the job. We could ease this somewhat by
providing UDFs that would generate the correct \u notation, basically exposing
comparator.fromString and then converting that to \u notation for pig.
Alternately, we could cheat in the loader and describe the ring ourselves, but
that would be going outside of CFIF/CFRR.

> Currently the Cassandra/Pig loadfunc hardcodes the slice predicate to get all
