Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-4664:
---------------------------------------------
bq. We've allowed that in every major release
I though we weren't allowing it but that's my bad, the only thing we forbid is
to modify the system schema. I still don't think it's wise per se (and I think
the fact that CQL3 exposes the system table in a human readable way will make
it more tempting/easy for some to try to be smart though I may well be wrong)
but I do lift my objections.
