Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-4241:
-------------------------------------------
IMO this would make the code cleaner as well as get us a step closer to using
custom types in CQL, should we want to allow that.
> avoid hardcoding datatypes in CQL grammar

> Currently adding a new datatype requires editing Cql.g as well as CFPropDefs.
