Based on the suggestion in the dev list, I've updated the patch to include a note about impact on system keyspaces in cassandra.yaml.

Updated github branch: https://github.com/sumanth-pasupuleti/cassandra/tree/14557-trunk
Added patch file:  [^14557-4.0.txt]

> Ending up with a keyspace of RF=1 is unfortunately pretty easy in C* right now - the system_auth table for example is created with RF=1 (to take into account single node setups afaict from CASSANDRA-5112), and a user can further create a keyspace with RF=1 posing availability and streaming risks (e.g. rebuild).
> I propose we add two configuration options in cassandra.yaml:
>  # {{default_keyspace_rf}} (default: 1) - If replication factors are not specified, use this number.
>  # {{required_minimum_keyspace_rf}} (default: unset) - Prevent users from creating a keyspace with an RF less than what is configured
> These settings could further be re-used to:
>  * Provide defaults for new keyspaces created with SimpleStrategy or NetworkTopologyStrategy (CASSANDRA-14303)
>  * Make the automatic token [allocation algorithm|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13701?focusedCommentId=16095662&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#comment-16095662] interface more intuitive allowing easy use of the new token allocation algorithm.
> At the end of the day, if someone really wants to allow RF=1, they simply don’t set the setting. For backwards compatibility the default remains 1 and C* would create with RF=1, and would default to current behavior of allowing any RF on keyspaces.
