Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-4012:
-------------------------------------------

I'm fine doing this over python/cql, since we already ship that driver in-tree 
for cqlsh.  I also don't think it needs to be ultra-high-performance, since by 
exporting it to a text file first you're basically implying that

# performance isn't super critical, or you'd write a custom source -> cassandra 
loader and skip the intermediate text file step
# you're not concerned with huge data volumes

So basically our target use case is "want to play with some toy data" or 
importing small datasets.
