Any plans to support key metadata?
In 0.7, Cassandra now supports column metadata
CfDef.default_validation_class and ColumnDef.validation_class. Is
there any plan to provide similar metadata for keys, at the key space
or column family level?

Eventually, but I think this requires moving to
partitioner-per-columnfamily which as discussed before is a ton of
work.

Sorry to respond to my own email, but in re-reading it I realized that
I meant to say "type metadata", not just "metadata". I'm interested in
optionally being able to store a key type in the same way we now have
column types.
