Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-4448:
-------------------------------------------
If you're playing with cqlsh, on the rare occasions that you need to specify CL
doing so manually is not a big deal. But if you're writing application code,
you should not be writing raw CQL; you should be using a higher-level,
idiomatic API (such as the one pycassa provides), which can generate CQL
specifying CL with no work on your part.
Granted, such higher-level APIs do not yet exist for CQL, but I think this is a
misfeature given that we will get to that point in the next few months.
> CQL3: allow to define a per-cf default consistency level
> --------------------------------------------------------

> Key: CASSANDRA-4448
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4448
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Sylvain Lebresne
> Labels: cql3
> Fix For: 1.2

> One of the goal of CQL3 is that client library should not have to parse
> queries to provide a good experience. In particular, that means such client
> (that don't want to parse queries) won't be able to allow the user to define
> a specific default read/write consistency level per-CF, forcing user to
> specific the consistency level with every query, which is not very user
> friendly.
> This ticket suggests the addition of per-cf default read/write consitency
> level. Typically the syntax would be:
> {noformat}
> CREATE TABLE foo (...)
> WITH DEFAULT_READ_CONSISTENCY = QUORUM
> AND DEFAULT_WRITE_CONSISTENCY = QUORUM
> {noformat}
