Pavel Yaskevich commented on CASSANDRA-4093:
--------------------------------------------
bq. I'm still convinced that part is worth it to be able to query schema
information without thrift describe_ methods.
Ok but it's only useful with CQL3 because all others wouldn't be able to query
that correctly like CLI because of the way column metadata is stored right now.
> schema_* CFs do not respect column comparator which leads to CLI commands
> failure.
