Paulo Motta commented on CASSANDRA-17292:
-----------------------------------------
One additional thing I would like to note is that my proposal conciously
abstains from attempting to pre-define a full domain model upfront, in favor of
an incremental feature-centric approach, where we migrate the properties from
the legacy flat format to the new feature-centric format gradually - while new
features can already start using the new format based on the
{{FeatureConfiguration}} abstraction - as exemplified above in the migration of
the "hints" configuration from the old to the new model.

> Recent mailing list conversation (see "[DISCUSS] Nested YAML configs for new
> features") has made it clear we will gravitate toward appropriately nested
> structures for new parameters in {{cassandra.yaml}}, but from the scattered
> conversation across a few Guardrails tickets (see CASSANDRA-17212 and
> CASSANDRA-17148) and CASSANDRA-15234, there is also a general desire to
> eventually extend this to the rest of {{cassandra.yaml}}. The benefits of
> this change include those we gain by doing it for new features (single point
> of interest for feature documentation, typed configuration objects, logical
> grouping for additional parameters added over time, discoverability, etc.),
> but one a larger scale.
> This may overlap with ongoing work, including the Guardrails epic. Ideally,
> even a rough cut of a design here would allow that to move forward in a
> timely and coherent manner (with less long-term refactoring pain).
