I'm not thrilled with Thrift, but I'd like to see and hear more real 
world use of CQL first (Avro all the things is not that long ago).

That said, a major rev /could/ do this - not start the thrift server by 
default.  It's then a hoop jump to enable it via nodetool/yaml, and 
signals to the client communities and user base, where the project 
intends to go.
