Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-6833:
----------------------------------------------

bq. Actually, to my mind this whole thing makes a lot of sense: use jsonblob 
for prototyping then once the schema settles convert to UDT. The json 
read/writes still work as intended, but magically it gets better for field 
lookups etc.

Or, you know, just put it in a blob, since it only affects validation anyway, 
and changes literally nothing else - except maybe cqlsh output formatting.

> While recognizing that UDT (CASSANDRA-5590) is the Right Way to store 
> hierarchical data in C*, it can still be useful to store json blobs as text.  
> Adding a json type would allow validating that data.  (And adding formatting 
> support in cqlsh?)
