It looks like I can infer this from the local table in the system schema by looking at the datacenter value.
Would this be a bad bad thing to do?

Is there a way to read the endpoint_snitch at runtime, preferably from a CQL query, but fine if it's available through an older API? (Or JMX?) We're automating creating clusters & provisioning our schema appropriately into them, it'd be great if the provisioning program could figure this out once it connected to the cluster before creating keyspaces. Right now we are having to track a maze of parameters to make sure that the cluster gets created with the right snitch, and then that we can pass a parameter into the provisioning program to tell it which topology strategy to use.
