A basic example of how the patch work is:

cqlsh:test> select * from src ;
id | a
---+---
5 | a5
1 | a1
2 | a2
4 | a4
3 | a3
(5 rows)
cqlsh:test> select * from dst;
a | b
---+---
a4 | b4
a3 | b3
a2 | b2
a1 | b1
cqlsh:test> select a, dst.b as q from src join dst on a;
a | q
---+-----
a5 | null
a1 | b1
a2 | b2
a4 | b4
a3 | b3

> People whine about there not being any JOIN in CQL a lot.  I was thinking we could add JOIN with the restriction that you can only join on partition key, and only if the tables are in the same keyspace.  That way it could be done local to each node, and would not need to be a true distributed join.
