Generally, you can create as many columns (qualifiers) as you want.  Column
families are more static and have physical ramifications so these must be
explicitly created and removed using alter table in the shell.

What are you trying to achieve with column families?  For some cases, you
could likely enforce a qualifier name convention with your application.
