This is what I'm talking about
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2231

<(short)length><constituent><end byte = 0><(short)length><constituent><end
byte = 0>...
I would like to be able to input these kinds of keys into the CLI, something
like
set cf[key]['constituent1':'constituent2':'constituent3'] = val
