So I posted this to the user list in December, and got nowhere..

Can someone familiar with db_cassandra review my patch ( possibly clean this up and commit it )

yea I know I left crap in there, but it gives you an idea... also...
yea pk is a crap name... copy paste... and I havnt given any thought to the size 255 ,  but thats probably fairly safe and anything smaller might not be so safe.
( unless there is a limit elsewhere I should observe )
