Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-3453:
-------------------------------------------

What is the benefit of this in exchange for the complexity of having to check a 
setting now to find out where your snapshots are?
                
> cassandra.yaml needs a directory_setting

> cassandra.yaml really needs a config option for a snapshot directory. by 
> default it should be a peer folder with saved_caches, commitlog and data.
> assuming the value of that setting is /some/path/snapshot_dir then snapshots 
> would go into: /some/path/snapshot_dir/snapshot_name/keyspace_name/
> this makes automation, particularly around backups, much easier and gives 
> more control to ops
