-----------------------------------------------

{quote}I really think that the silver bullet does exist and that is just 
removing alter_table_enabled while it is not late and introducing ddl_enabled 
in 5.0 GA.
{quote}

I still think this is completely reasonable to do even now. There will be still 
at least one rc1 anyway. What are the _objective_ reasons this can't be 
incorporated now? There are way bigger patches like CASSANDRA-19534 which seem 
to be completely OK to be introduced even now, this patch is magnitude less 
complicated.

> Sometimes we want to block DDL/DCL queries to stop new schemas being created 
> or roles created. (e.g. when doing live-upgrade)
> For DDL guardrail current implementation won't block the query if it's no-op 
> (e.g. CREATE TABLE...IF NOT EXISTS, but table already exists, etc. The 
> guardrail check is added in apply() right after all the existence check)
> I don't have preference on either block every DDL query or check whether if 
> it's no-op here. Just we have some users always run CREATE..IF NOT EXISTS.. 
> at startup, which is no-op but will be blocked by this guardrail and failed 
> to start.
