The pull request [1] is a proposed fix for CASSANDRA-17773. I am looking for comments and a decision as to whether to move forward or not with this change.
The goal is to remove much of the boiler-plate code from scripts without changing their functionality or arguments and to add the ability to debug the configuration settings on a running system. Please take a look and comment, Claude [1] https://github.com/apache/cassandra/pull/1950
