Jonathan Ellis resolved CASSANDRA-2079.
---------------------------------------

    Resolution: Not A Problem

If you were sending valid data, then having that actually enforced won't hurt. :)

If you weren't, you should probably switch to BytesType.

> Prior to 0.7, if you wanted to use integer values other than long types as column names, you had to use AsciiType to get a valid numeric-order comparison.  If you migrate to 0.7 you need to change the comparison type to "IntegerType", otherwise you will get the following error: InvalidRequestException(Why: Invalid byte for ascii: -51), or something similar.  The documentation should be updated to warn users of this issue.
