Jonathan Ellis updated CASSANDRA-3710:
--------------------------------------

    Fix Version/s:     (was: 1.0.10)

I'm fine with adding an autosnapshot configuration variable defaulting to true that controls whether to snapshot before truncate and drop.

> Let me first say, I hate this idea.  It gives cassandra the ability to permanently delete data at a large scale without any means of recovery.  However, I've seen this requested multiple times, and it is in fact useful in some scenarios, such as when your application is using an embedded cassandra instance for testing and need to truncate, which without JNA will timeout more often than not.
