T Jake Luciani commented on CASSANDRA-2474:
-------------------------------------------
bq. I think we can support sparse columns well in a way that improves the
conceptual integrity for the dense composites as well
I think this is clean, the only worry with DENSE never using a column value is
it will make it hard for current users of composites to adopt this, since they
may well use a value.
> CQL support for compound columns

> 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.
