{quote}... in any case I'm not convinced a startup scrub is the right approach. 
I think that what we need is to write conversions functions...{quote}
Despite there being no startup scrub this still means that a manual `nodetool 
upgradesstables` will use these conversions functions to rewrite all sstables 
to composite columns?

> super columns are annoying.  composite columns offer a better API and 
> performance.  people should use composites over super columns.  some people 
> are already using super columns.  C* should implement the super column API in 
> terms of composites to reduce code, complexity and testing as well as 
> increase performance.
