Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-7622:
---------------------------------------------

bq. we would like this to be at least a little bit generic, so that one could 
plug-in extra virtual keyspaces on C* startup, similar to how some folks/forks 
add extra system keyspaces and system tables.

If by "plug-in", you mean "patch-in" (but easily so and without being too 
limited), then sure, that's just good coding and no issue on that from me.

> There are a variety of reasons to want virtual tables, which would be any 
> table that would be backed by an API, rather than data explicitly managed and 
> stored as sstables.
> One possible use case would be to expose JMX data through CQL as a 
> resurrection of CASSANDRA-3527.
> Another is a more general framework to implement the ability to expose yaml 
> configuration information. So it would be an alternate approach to 
> CASSANDRA-7370.
> A possible implementation would be in terms of CASSANDRA-7443, but I am not 
> presupposing.
