> Versions g and h are actually forwards-compatible with version f, and more
> changes like that are easily forseeable (e.g., CASSANDRA-3407).
> It would be nice to have an extra version digit (h1, h2, ... ha, hb, ...).
> Otherwise our choices are forcing people to scrub for these changes
> (unacceptable) or not updating the Descriptor version, which is suboptimal
> since we don't know what the contents are until we try to read it and find
> the latest parts missing.
