Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-2878:
-------------------------------------------

bq. i do have a upcoming usecase where a basic combination would be useful: m/r 
over all rows where a given supercolumn exists. Is this possible? Can you point 
me towards relevant issues?

Not really.  Even on non-supercolumns we don't have "existence" indexes.  You 
can kind of workaround it (in the non-SC case) by setting a "flag" column to 
stand in for that, though.  In the SC case I wonder if you could put the 
relevant data in a separate CF.

> Currently, when running a MapReduce job against data in a Cassandra data 
> store, it reads through all the data for a particular ColumnFamily.  This 
> could be optimized to only read through those rows that have to do with the 
> query.
> Adding CQL support to m/r will allow using an index more simply than trying 
> to cram support for more parameters into the job configuration.
