> In addition to our current Auth framework that acts as a white list, and regulates access to data, functions, and roles, it would be beneficial to have a different, capability limitation framework, that would be orthogonal to Auth, and would act as a blacklist.
> Example uses:
> - take away the ability to TRUNCATE from all users but the admin (TRUNCATE itself would still require MODIFY permission)
> - take away the ability to use ALLOW FILTERING from all users but Spark/Hadoop (SELECT would still require SELECT permission)
> - take away the ability to use UNLOGGED BATCH from everyone (the operation itself would still require MODIFY permission)
> - take away the ability to use certain consistency levels (make certain tables LWT-only for all users, for example)
> Original description:
> Please provide a "strict mode" option in cassandra that will kick out any CQL queries that are expensive, e.g. any query with ALLOWS FILTERING, multi-partition queries, secondary index queries, etc.
