Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-2474:
-------------------------------------------
I think we're closing in on something workable.
Eric points out that TRANSPOSED is unnecessary since it's redundant with
respect to the composite PRIMARY KEY definition.
Should we support column values in non-sparse rows by adding a
VALUE(column_name) section?
{code}
CREATE TABLE timeline (
user_id int,
posted_at uuid,
body string,
posted_by string,
PRIMARY KEY(user_id, posted_at, posted_by),
VALUE(body)
);
{code}
(Open to better suggestions for that keyword.)

> 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.
