Sean Bridges commented on CASSANDRA-2494:

Peter Shuller wrote,
"However, it sounds like what is being asked for is not that they don't
propagate in the event of a write "failure", but just that reads don't see the
writes until they are sufficiently propagated to guarantee that any future
QUORUM read will also see the data."
Yes, that is the issue. The comment in the bug about writing at ONE and
reading at QUORUM is just a way of testing this new guarantee in a distributed
test, if Cassandra has those.
