Rick Shaw commented on CASSANDRA-2477:
--------------------------------------
How about a custom CF for each (KS/CF); that fully defines the schema entries
for each piece of information to be returned about each KS and each CF.
Then DESCRIBE returns a CQLResult containing normal row content. The syntax of
the DESCRIBE drives a flat set of rows returned to the caller. The CQL
QueryProcessor returns the contents of the CQLRow items for information it
already has access to in the internal metadata tables.
> CQL support for describing keyspaces / column familes
