David Capwell commented on CASSANDRA-18441:
-------------------------------------------

bq. I wonder if we shouldn't leave the version out to be dealt with in a 
downgradeability ticket

I am cool with the version being left to a different ticket, as long as this 
API allows it (the version being in option allows it)

bq. b.) consistent w/ the big nesting overhaul proposal from CASSANDRA-17292.

Nested configs became more complex than expected, so using a design where 
multiple partied were ok with is best IMO, so I prefer sstable.format.[default, 
options].  I am ok with the keys under sstable.format to change as defined by 
this patch (selected_format, selected, default, etc.).  So +1 to the yaml 
defined by [~maedhroz]

> CEP-17 and CASSANDRA-17056 abstracted some interfaces for SSTable format 
> implementations and defined a method of plugging in specific configurations. 
> This method is brittle and asks users to specify format identifiers whose 
> configuration does not provide value but can be the source of conflicts and 
> problems. On the other hand it makes important choices non-obvious, as the 
> selection of format to write is given by the order of configured interfaces.
> An improved specification mechanism needs to be put in place before Cassandra 
> 5 is released.
