Vijay commented on CASSANDRA-2710:
----------------------------------

It has a lot of potential (Provides flexibility) while modeling wide rows with 
composite columns. Should we at-least support it via thrift?
                
> Get multiple column ranges

> I have replaced all my super column families with regular column families 
> using composite columns. I have easily been able to support all previous 
> functionality (I don't need range delete) except for one thing: getting 
> multiple super columns with a single access. For this, I would need to get 
> multiple ranges. (I can get multiple columns, or a single range, but not 
> multiple ranges.) 
> For example, I used to have
> [<superColumnName1>,<subColumnName1..N>],[<superColumnName2>,<subColumnName1..N>]
> and I could get superColumnName1, superColumnName2
> Now I have
> [<len><superColumnName1>0<len><subColumnName1>..<len><superColumnName1>0<len><subColumnNameN>],[<len><superColumnName2>0<len><subColumnName1>..<len><superColumnName2>0<len><subColumnNameN>]
> and I need to get superColumnName1..superColumnName1+, 
> superColumnName2..superColumnName2+
> to get the same functionality
> I would like the clients to support this functionality, e.g. Hector to have 
> .setRages parallel to .setColumnNames 
> and for CQL to support a syntax like 
> SELECT [FIRST N] [REVERSED] name1..nameN1, name2..nameN2... FROM ...
