It should be dead-simple to build a slick GUI on the REST layer.
(@Virgil<http://code.google.com/a/apache-extras.org/p/virgil/>
)

I had planned to crank one out this week (using ExtJS) that mimicked the
Squirrel/Toad look and feel.  The UI would have a tree-panel of keyspaces
and column families on the left. Then the main panel would be partitioned
into two.  The top of the main panel would would allow a user to type in
CQL/Pig, etc.  The bottom of the main panel would show the data contained
in the column family / result set.  Any other thoughts on design before I
get started?

If we build this based on the JSON/REST interface, it should be pretty easy
to embed in other applications.
