Sylvain Lebresne resolved CASSANDRA-3782.
-----------------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

I'm going to close that one because I think CASSANDRA-5125 pretty much give us
what we want here for CQL3.

> Currently, CQL 3.0 doesn't allow creating an index on a dynamic CF (with COMPACT STORAGE). The goal of this ticket is *not* to support the composite case however (CASSANDRA-3680 will tackle this).
> I think changes needed to support this are only in the CQL side and covert two area:
> * Finding a syntax for it
> * Currently, the CQL 3 code consider that a CF with any column_metadata defined is a non-compact cf. Basically the problem is that we currently use column_metadata both for defining a name for a column in the static case, and store indexing information. Ideally, we would separate those informations, i.e. we could add a new map valueAliases (ByteBuffer -> AbstractType) to CFMetadata (only used by static CF) and we would keep column_metadata for indexing purpose only. However that may be problematic for backward compatibility (with thrift in particular), so probably instead we can just add a new boolean isStaticColumnName to ColumnDefinition.
