Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-1900:
-------------------------------------------

I'm going to need some more explanation, possibly in improved comments. :)

What I understand so far: "removetoken force" is the forceRemoveCompletion method.

> The 'removetoken force' command was intended for forcing a removal to complete when the removal stalls for some reason. The most likely reason being a streaming failure causing the node to wait forever for streams to complete.
> The command should be updated so that it can force a removal in any case. For example a node that was decommissioned but killed before a LEFT status was broadcasted. This leaves the node in a permanent 'leaving' state.
