--------------------------------------------------
Robert Stupp, I have taken Cassansdra formatter from
https://github.com/tjake/cassandra-style-eclipse. I think the existing code
file is not as per the recommended formatter. So once I applied the formatting,
formatting changes popped up. Please verify it at your end too. Do you want me
disable formatter and checkin file ?
"it would also be ok to go one step further and to allow drops, alters and
adds of columns in the same statement"
I think we can have separate JIRA ticket for that. I would like to stick to
current scope of JIRA which is about supporting multiple add/drops
I will provide patch over trunk and will also check formatting in trunk.

> Currently it is only possible to add one column at a time in an alter table
> statement. It would be great if we could add multiple columns at a time.
> The primary reason for this is that adding each column individually seems to
> take a significant amount of time (at least on my development machine), I
> know all the columns I want to add, but don't know them until after the
> initial table is created.
> As a secondary consideration it brings CQL slightly closer to SQL where most
> databases can handle adding multiple columns in one statement.
