As a general meta comment, the process by which operationally important
defaults change in Cassandra seems ad-hoc and sub-optimal.

For to record, my view was that this change, which makes repair even slower
than it previously was, was probably overly optimistic.

It's also weird in that it changes default behavior which has been
unchanged since the start of Cassandra time and is therefore probably
automated against. Why was it so critically important to switch to snapshot
repair that it needed to be shotgunned as a new default in 2.0.2?
