Description

In Cassandra it's super important to understand how your CQL schema translates to the underlying storage rows. Right now the only way to see this is to create the schema in cqlsh, write some data, then query it using the CLI. Obviously we don't want to be encouraging people to use the CLI when it's supposed to be deprecated. So I'd like to see a function in cqlsh to do this.
