Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-6237:
---------------------------------------------
Yeah, the plan here is to allow the same restrictions we allow on {{SELECT}}
for clustering columns, which includes that kind of queries.
> Allow range deletions in CQL

> We uses RangeTombstones internally in a number of places, but we could expose
> more directly too. Typically, given a table like:
> {noformat}
> CREATE TABLE events (
> id text,
> created_at timestamp,
> content text,
> PRIMARY KEY (id, created_at)
> )
> {noformat}
> we could allow queries like:
> {noformat}
> DELETE FROM events WHERE id='someEvent' AND created_at < 'Jan 3, 2013';
> {noformat}
