---------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't think this is about right or wrong but rather about living by means
instead of re-inventing broken bicycle. I'm not arguing or trying to convince,
I'm simply saying that committed patch made situation even worse and it should
be reconsidered all together. Also, if somebody ever had mistyped and didn't
fix or used unrecognized attributes in replication strategy or compaction,
after upgrade to 1.2.1 Cassandra just *wouldn't start up* which is also a
"ridiculously bad user experience", this is why I think this patch should be
reverted.
Edit: I think that concerns DSE as well, because AFAIK they used custom
attributes in the compaction strategy as well as in keyspace replication.
