Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-2474:
-------------------------------------------
bq. Can be used as a replacement for "componentX"
I think the goal should be to make it look more like SQL when that is
reasonable.
bq. when we want to extend "2e1c3308,cscotta" with <location> we can simply
update old column's name to "2e1c3308,cscotta,<location>"
That would imply a "rename column" operation. I don't want to go there.

> For the most part, this boils down to supporting the specification of
> compound column names (the CQL syntax is colon-delimted terms), and then
> teaching the decoders (drivers) to create structures from the results.
