Andres de la Peña commented on CASSANDRA-17292:
-----------------------------------------------
I guess that getting the proposal ready, discussing it and getting it approved
can take a while.
I'll be happy preparing a patch to return guardrails config to the original
flat structure that what was proposed in the initial patch if that helps to
unblock progress on guardrails. That way we can keep adding guardrails while
the restructuring of the yaml is under discussion. It should be quite easy to
go back to the current nested format if we end up going that way. [~benedict]
would this work for you?
As for track warnings, I understand that we should also flatten them in a
similar way. Maybe we can do that as part of CASSANDRA-17341, once the config
for guardrails is flattened. [~dcapwell] wdyt?

> Recent mailing list conversation (see "[DISCUSS] Nested YAML configs for new
> features") has made it clear we will gravitate toward appropriately nested
> structures for new parameters in {{cassandra.yaml}}, but from the scattered
> conversation across a few Guardrails tickets (see CASSANDRA-17212 and
> CASSANDRA-17148) and CASSANDRA-15234, there is also a general desire to
> eventually extend this to the rest of {{cassandra.yaml}}. The benefits of
> this change include those we gain by doing it for new features (single point
> of interest for feature documentation, typed configuration objects, logical
> grouping for additional parameters added over time, discoverability, etc.),
> but one a larger scale.
> This may overlap with ongoing work, including the Guardrails epic. Ideally,
> even a rough cut of a design here would allow that to move forward in a
> timely and coherent manner (with less long-term refactoring pain).
> While these would have to be adjusted to CASSANDRA-15234 (probably after it
> merges), there have been two proposals floated already for what this might
> look like:
