> sstable2json (and potentially other command-line tools that call DatabaseDescriptor.loadSchemas) will hang if the user running them doesn't have write permission on the commit logs.  loadSchemas calls Schema.updateVersion, which causes a mutation to the system tables, then it just spins forever trying to acquire a commit log segment.  See this thread dump: https://gist.github.com/markcurtis1970/837e770d1cad5200943c. The tools should recognize this and present an understandable error message.
