Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-7523:
-------------------------------------

bq. Do we need to support "empty" values on new types? seems to me we could 
explicitly forbid them, or would thrift clients still expect to be able to set 
this to empty? What's to stop is introducing semantics for new types that 
prevent this, so we can start stamping it out?
bq. Good question. I went with an implementation that was consistent with the 
rest of the code-base but can see the argument either way.

[~slebresne] [~iamaleksey] any thoughts on this?

> should be pretty easy to add.)
