What did you do?

My cluster is hidden behind proxy, all nodes are mapped to one address, but different ports.
For this purpose i have use custom AddressTranslator that maps broadcase_address of nodes nodes to host+port of the proxy.

It works great, but unfortunately if one node goes down I begin experiencing queries returning ErrNoConnections.
Source of the problem is the following, when nodes are being added to the roundRobinHostPolicy:
https://github.com/gocql/gocql/blob/6d279ed01c1069d14420584f3f7d5bc1794cf804/policies.go#L331-L333

It uses cowHostList.add to do the job, which does deduplication via HostInfo.Equal:
https://github.com/gocql/gocql/blob/6d279ed01c1069d14420584f3f7d5bc1794cf804/policies.go#L50-L60

Which relies on h.ConnectAddress().Equal(host.ConnectAddress()):
https://github.com/gocql/gocql/blob/6d279ed01c1069d14420584f3f7d5bc1794cf804/host_source.go#L135-L142

As result I end-up with only one node in the roundRobinHostPolicy.hosts pool and if this node is one that does not work, then I get ErrNoConnections after first retry.

What did you expect to see?

Everything works as supposed to

What did you see instead?

ErrNoConnections
