Guo: From your name change suggestion, I think I’d be -1 on that. In my head, 
LOOSE_NOT_NULL would imply that there is another NOT_NULL which happens to be 
NOT_NULL. Not the case now after this thread discussion. There are a lot of 
differences between MYSQL and Cassandra, and this constraint behavior being one 
of them I think is also a valid assumption. I don’t think there’s the need of 
being verbose on the naming for the constraint.
