Description

From the docs:

These additions to a table are not allowed:

Adding a column having the same name as an existing column.
Adding columns to tables defined with COMPACT STORAGE.

however, this still works against a domain defined with COMPACT STORAGE in cqlsh

it appears that the metadata, however, is not defined correctly.
