André Cruz commented on CASSANDRA-4245:
---------------------------------------
I'm also interested in a UTF-8 comparator that orders columns alphabetically.
In fact, I was expecting this to be the default behaviour in Cassandra until it
bit me. For example, with 3 columns: André, Zeus and Ándré.
I was expecting:
André
Ándré
Zeus
The result was:
André
Zeus
Ándré
This is what's being discussed in this issue, right?

> It is a common use case to use a bunch of entity names as column names & then
> use the row as a search index, using search by range. For such use cases &
> others, it is useful to have a UTF8 comparator that provides case insensitive
> ordering of columns.
