Sorry if I misunderstand, but #579 seems to only solve half of your question, I believe the first part of your email stays valid (as in: in-node compaction causes disk usage to double anyway in worst case). CASSANDRA-1041 may also be relevant (also includes mini-discussion on local data partitioning).
