Jonathan Ellis resolved CASSANDRA-48.
-------------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

It seems clear that this is unworkable in cassandra core.

> Atomic test-and-set insert operation would be nice: "set value to X but only if the current value is still Y."  This allows a sort of optimistic consistency: perform a GET, then perform test-and-set with the value of that GET as Y.
> I do not think that this requires strong consistency to be useful.
