Tyler Hobbs commented on CASSANDRA-7859:
----------------------------------------

bq. Additionally (and that's alsmot a separate ticket but I figured we can 
start discussing it here), we could decide that tuple is a frozen type by 
default. This means that we would allow tuple<int, text> without needing to add 
frozen, but we would require frozen for complex type inside tuple, so 
tuple<int, list<text>> would be rejected, but not tuple<int, 
frozen<list<text>>>.

I think that's reasonable.  There are very few cases where non-frozen tuples 
would be useful, let alone the best option, so I don't think we'll ever need 
them.  It's actually pretty simple to make this change, so I can do that as 
part of this ticket.

> This is the follow-up to CASSANDRA-7857, to extend {{frozen}} to collections. 
> This will allow things like {{map<text, frozen<map<int, int>>>}} for 
> instance, as well as allowing {{frozen}} collections in PK columns.
